IBM 200/400GB LTO-2 Tape Drive: User's Guide
Attention:
To avoid static electricity damage when you handle the IBM 200/400GB
LTO-2 Tape Drive, use the following precautions:
v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build
around you.
v Always handle the LTO-2 carefully. Never touch exposed circuitry.
v Prevent others from touching the LTO-2.
v Before you unpack and install the LTO-2 into an enclosure, touch its
static-protective packaging to an unpainted metal surface on the enclosure
for at least 2 seconds. This reduces static electricity in the packaging and
your body.
v When possible, remove the LTO-2 from its static-protective packaging and
install it directly into an enclosure without setting it down. When this is
not possible, place the tape drive's packaging on a smooth, level surface
and place the tape drive on the packaging.
v Do not place the LTO-2 on the cover of the enclosure or on any other metal
surface.
Before starting this installation, read these instructions and compare them to
the drive installation instructions for your server.
