www.hp.com/products/sharedstorage
When installed, the hot-plug tape drive fills two storage system hard drive bays. For
complete information, refer to the documentation that ships with the Universal
Hot-Plug Tape drive.
To install a tape drive:
1. Remove two adjacent hard drive blanks. Refer to “Removing Hard Drive Blanks”
in this chapter.
CAUTION: Installation of the tape drive height converter is permanent.
Attempting to remove the converter after installation voids the tape drive
warranty.
