Chapter 2 Installation Procedures

Before Installing the LTO-3 Half-Height Tape Drive

LTO-3 Half-Height Tape Drive User’s Guide 7

Preinstallation

Requirements 2

Before installing the LTO-3 Half-Height Tape Drive, make sure you have:

• A host bus adapter (HBA) installed and properly configured in the

host computer:

• Parallel SCSI HBA for a parallel SCSI drive

• Serial SCSI HBA for a SAS drive

• Interface components:

• For a parallel SCSI drive, either internal or tabletop, a 68-pin

parallel SCSI cable and terminator

• For a SAS drive, either:

• 7-pin 1x SATA style interface cable for an internal drive

• 26-pin SFF-8088 mini-SAS style interface cable for a tabletop

drive

Handling Precautions

(continued)

• Handle the drive by its sides rather

than by the top cover to reduce the risk

of dropping the drive or damaging it

during installation.

• Either lay the drive on a nonconductive

surface or put it back inside the

protective antistatic bag to reduce the

chance of damage from static discharge

Installation Guidelines

•LTO-3 Half-Height Tape Drives with

the parallel SCSI interface are low

voltage differential (LVD) SCSI devices.

Install LVD drives only in LVD

environments. Do not mix LVD and

HVD devices on the same parallel SCSI

bus.

• Due to the high speed of the LTO-3

Half-Height Tape Drive, do not connect

more than one LTO-3 drive to the same

channel on a host SCSI adapter.
