Installing the Tabletop LTO-3 (Model B) Half-Height Tape Drive
26-pin SFF-8088 mini-SAS connector
AC power connector
Connect the interface and AC power cables to the tabletop drive as follows:
1 As required:
a Save and close your open files and terminate all running applications.
b Shut down the workstation or server system.
c Disconnect the system AC power cord from the facility AC power receptacle.
2 Depending on the interface configuration of your tabletop drive:
a For the parallel SCSI tabletop drive:
• Attach the SCSI IN interface cable to one of the 68-pin parallel SCSI interface
connectors on the back of the drive.
• Attach either the SCSI OUT interface cable or a SCSI terminator to the other
parallel SCSI interface connector on the back of the drive.
If the tabletop LTO-3 (Model B) Half-Height Tape Drive is the last or only
device in a SCSI chain, you must install a 68-pin low voltage differential
(LVD) terminating plug on the unused parallel SCSI connector.
See
figure 11
Caution: The LTO-3 (Model B) Half-Height Tape Drive with the parallel SCSI
interface is a low voltage differential (LVD) SCSI device. Install it
only in LVD environments. Plugging an LVD drive into a high
voltage differential (HVD) bus makes the entire bus nonfunctional
and may permanently damage the drive or other SCSI devices on
the bus.
