HP Tape manual

If your computer requires special rails or other hardware to install the tape drive, mount them on the tape drive in this step.

If your computer does not require special mounting hardware, proceed to step 1 on page 13 now.

1Attach the appropriate rails:

If you are installing in an HP NetServer L-series, place the tape drive in the mounting tray supplied, as shown in figure 3.

Some IBM servers have snap-on mounting rails attached to the filler panel. These can be removed and attached to the tape drive with screws. Mounting hardware may be required for some other servers such as DELL and Compaq servers. For more details, refer to the HP support web site:

If your computer uses other mounting hardware, attach it to the tape drive as directed in your computer documentation.

2Secure the tape drive in the mounting tray using the four screws supplied with your drive.
