Operation
• Do not move the drives while they are operating. It may cause
malfunctions.
• Avoid exposing the drives to sudden changes from a low to high
temperatures. This may cause water condensation to collect inside the
drives. If the ambient temperature should suddenly rise while the drives
are turned on, wait at least one hour before turning on the drives. If you
attempt to operate the drives immediately after a sudden increase in
temperature, malfunctions may occur.
• Turning off the power to the drives while they are writing to tape may
cause the tape to become unreadable. All previously negotiated
parameters will be lost, whenever power to the drives is cycled.
Transportation
• Keep the original packing materials to facilitate safe transportation of the
drives.
• Always remove the tape/media cartridge before moving the drives. After
removing the drives from the computer, repack them into their original
packing.
