NOTE
The expression StorageWorks Building Block, or SBB, is used in StorageWorks documentation to refer to a device, such as tape or disk drive, that is installed in a device carrier.
Option SWXTE-AB is a configuration in which a second 8mm tape drive is installed in a device carrier. Note that the device carrier is shipped to you with both drives already installed if options SWXTE-AA and SWXTE-AB are ordered at the same time. If option SWXTE-AB is ordered after you already have option SWXTE-AA, the second drive is installed in the top half of the device carrier as shown in Figure 1–3.
