Mounting Bay; Mounting Hardware - HP StorageWorks DAT 40i Getting Started Manual

How can I check the SCSI bus type and SCSI ID?
For many operating systems, you can install HP Library & Tape Tools from
support/tapetools and run the "Install Check" to check your server's current SCSI
configuration (see page 35). This will provide information about the SCSI bus and the SCSI
IDs in use. See also the SCSI topic in the electronic User's Guide on the
HP StorageWorks Tape CD-ROM for other ways of checking the SCSI bus type.
What are the mounting requirements for the tape drive?

Mounting bay

You need one industry standard, 5¼-inch, half-height bay in which to install the
HP StorageWorks DAT tape drive. Power requirements are:
Voltage
5 V
12 V

Mounting hardware

For many servers, no mounting tray or rails are required. Devices simply slide into the server's
chassis and are fixed with screws. Other servers have built-in trays or rails.
Rail kits for a number of industry-standard servers may be available. For more details refer to:
www.hp.com/go/connect .
Some servers use non-standard mounting rails and do not include spares. If this is the case
with your system, you will have to order these accessories from the server manufacturer before
you can install the tape drive.
Do I need additional items for installation?
• You may need mounting hardware. See "What are the mounting requirements for the tape
drive?" above.
• If you do not have a spare, suitably-rated SCSI connector on your server, you must install a
new HBA (also known as a SCSI card). This should be of an Ultra Wide or higher SCSI
specification. You will need to purchase and install the new HBA into an unused, 64-bit PCI
expansion slot within your server before installing your tape drive. (The kit can also be
installed in a 32-bit PCI expansion slot, but performance may be degraded.)
