2.4.8 Installing a TLZ04 Tape Drive
NOTE: Expanded systems configured at the factory already have storage
devices properly installed.
CAUTION: Static electricity can damage integrated circuits. Use the wrist
strap and antistatic mat found in the Antistatic Kit (part no. 29–26246)
when you work with the internal parts of a computer system.
Handle the TLZ04 tape drive with care. Dropping or bumping the drive can
damage the product. Carry or hold the drive by its metal brackets to avoid
damaging the drive.
Install the TLZ04 Tape Drive as follows:
1. Unpack the tape drive.
2. Remove the blank front panel and filler panel from the upper right-
most storage cavity of the expander. The front panel and filler panel
are each secured with one captive Phillips screw.
3. With the drive positioned so that the Unload button and indicators are
up, slide the drive along the guide rails into the upper right-most mass
storage cavity (Figure 2–8A).
4. Using the upper and lower finger cutouts on the brackets, firmly push
the drive brackets until the interface card at the rear of the drive plugs
into its backplane connector (Figure 2–8A). Tighten the two captive
screws.
CAUTION: It is normal for there to be a small gap between the drive
mounting bracket tabs and the R400X frame. Tighten the captive screws
only until they are securely fastened. Do not try to force the tabs to fit
flush against the frame.
5. Plug the ID cable into the connector inside the drive front panel
(<REFERENCE>(tinsert)B).
6. Attach the drive front panel to the enclosure by first fitting the panel’s
lower tabs and then fitting the panel into position. Secure the panel
with its single screw (Figure 2–8C).
