SCSI configuration
Your specific configuration will depend on the speed of your host and SCSI controller. The library uses high performance tape drives. The tape drive performance might be degraded if you attach too many drives to a single SCSI host controller.
One tape drive on a single host system
Figure 16 shows a typical SCSI cable configuration for a library with one tape drive (drive 1) installed.
