Reviewing Drive Default Settings

Your internal tape drive comes with various default settings. These settings are configured using
jumpers and switches.
The jumpers are located on the back of the drive, between the SCSI interface and power con-

nectors (see Figure 3 on page 20)
The switches are located on the underside of the drive. If you change a switch setting, you
•
must turn the drive off and then on to have the new setting take effect (see Figure 4 on
page 21).
You may need to change these settings to suit your requirements. Review the default settings in
Table 2 on page 20 to determine whether they suit your requirements or need to be changed.
If you do not need to change these default settings, skip to "Accessing the Inside of Your Com-

puter" on page 26.
