HP StorageWorks DAT Internal Autoloader Getting Started Guide

Step 6: Attach Y-cable and install drive
Your autoloader is shipped with a small foam gasket on each side of the drive. This is to
reduce EMI emissions but is only required, if there is a loose fit between the drive and the side
of your server's drive bay. You may safely remove these gaskets, if this is necessary to allow
the autoloader to be inserted.
1 Attach the Y-cable’s female power connectors to the autoloader’s two power sockets, as
shown in figure 8.
2 Slide the autoloader into the open bay, aligning the tray or rails with the slots in the bay, as
shown in figure 8.
If your server does not use mounting hardware, check that the holes in the chassis are aligned
with the holes in the side of the autoloader.
Do not secure the autoloader at this point because you may have to move the autoloader to
get the cables into place.
Install a SCSI host adapter in the selected server or workstation now, if necessary. For
information on SCSI host requirements, see page 3.
