Preinstallation

Requirements

Before installing the LTO-4 (Model B) Half-Height Tape Drive, make sure

you have:

• A host bus adapter (HBA) installed and properly configured in the

host computer:

• Parallel SCSI HBA for a parallel SCSI drive

• Serial SCSI HBA for a SAS drive

• Interface components:

• For a parallel SCSI drive, either internal or tabletop, a 68-pin

parallel SCSI cable and terminator

• For a SAS drive, either:

• 29-pin SFF-8482 SAS interface cable for an internal drive

• 26-pin SFF-8088 mini-SAS style interface cable for a

tabletop drive

• Backup application software that supports the tape drive. For a list

of the backup software applications that have been tested with the

Handling Precautions

(continued)

• Handle the drive by its sides rather

than by the top cover to reduce the risk

of dropping the drive or damaging it

during installation.

• Either lay the drive on a nonconductive

surface or put it back inside the

protective antistatic bag to reduce the

chance of damage from static

discharge

Installation Guidelines

Due to the high speed of the LTO-4

(Model B) Half-Height Tape Drive, do not

connect more than one LTO-4 (Model B)

drive to the same channel on a host SCSI

adapter.
