Connect the interface and DC power cables to the internal drive as follows:
1 Verify that the system is shut down and the AC power cord is disconnected from the
facility AC power receptacle.
2 Depending on the interface configuration of your internal drive:
a For the parallel SCSI internal drive:
• Attach the internal SCSI interface cable to the 68-pin parallel SCSI connector
on the back of the drive.
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.
• See the internal parallel SCSI bus termination examples in
to check/verify the system SCSI bus configuration and install a 68-pin LVD
SCSI bus terminator, as required.
b For the SAS internal drive, attach the internal SAS interface cable to the 29-pin
SFF-8482 SAS connector on the back of the drive.
3 Connect the internal drive DC power cable to the DC power connector on the back
of the drive.
4 Reinstall the system cover.
5 Reconnect the system AC power cord to the facility AC power receptacle.
After connecting the internal drive interface and DC power cables, proceed to
the Internal Tape Drive System
in the following subsection.
