From the inside of the chassis, push outwards on the center of the insert to remove the insert from the chassis.
7. Remove the peripheral bay (see "Removing the Peripheral Bay").
8. Slide the new drive into the peripheral bay until the holes in the peripheral bay and the drive line up.
9. Using four screws, secure the drive to the peripheral bay.
10. Install the peripheral bay (see "Installing the Peripheral Bay").
11. Connect the SCSI device to the SCSI cable provided with the device. Attach the other end of the SCSI cable to the interface connector SCSI/Channel B on
the system board.
Route the SCSI cable under the front fan assembly.
12. Check all cable connections that may have been loosened during this procedure. Arrange cables so that they will not catch on the system cover or block the
airflow of the fans or cooling vents.
13. Replace the system cover.
14. Close the front bezel.
15. Reconnect the system and peripherals to their power sources, and turn on the power.
16. Test the device.
To test a tape drive, see the documentation for the tape drive software to perform a tape drive backup and verification test.
Installing a Tape Drive That Uses a Controller Card
Tape drives that require their own separate controller cards are shipped with the controller card and an interface cable.
1. Turn off the power to the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical outlet.
2. Prepare the controller card and drive for installation.
Ground yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface on the back of the system, unpack the drive and controller card, and compare the jumper and switch
settings with those in the drive documentation. (See "SCSI Configuration Information," for information on setting the drive's SCSI ID number and enabling
termination [if required].) Change any settings necessary for this system's configuration.
3. Open the front bezel (see "Removing the Front Bezel" in "Troubleshooting Your System").
4. Remove the system cover.
5. Disconnect the cable connected to the interposer board on top of the peripheral bay.
This cable is the system board interface cable connecting the interposer board of the CD-ROM/diskette drive to the system board.
6. Remove the inserts from the front of the peripheral bay.
From the inside of the chassis, push outwards on the center of the insert to remove the insert from the chassis.
7. Remove the peripheral bay (see "Removing the Peripheral Bay").
8. Slide the tape drive into the peripheral bay until the holes in the peripheral bay and the tape drive line up.
9. Using four screws, secure the drive to the peripheral bay.
10. Install the peripheral bay (see "Installing the Peripheral Bay").
11. Install the controller card in an expansion slot (see "Installing an Expansion Card" in "Installing System Board Options").
12. Attach the interface cable that came with the drive kit to the interface connector on the back of the drive.
13. Connect the SCSI device to the SCSI cable provided with the device. Attach the other end of the SCSI cable to interface connector SCSI/Channel B on the
WARNING: Before you perform this procedure, you must turn off the system and disconnect it from its power source. For more information, see
"Safety First— For You and Your System" in "Troubleshooting Your System."
CAUTION: See "Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge" in the safety instructions in your System Information document.
