Internal Tape Drives
Compaq ProLiant ML370 Generation 2 servers provide support for up to two
internal tape drives including DAT, DLT, or the Compaq Universal Hot-Plug
Tape Drive. Internal devices installed in the removable media cage are cabled
directly to SCSI connector A on the system board with a three-device
terminated cable. The following illustration shows standard cable routing from
the removable media cage to the system board with the CD-ROM drive
installed.
