Installation Procedure
1 If you need to remove one or more filler plates, unscrew the two
thumbscrews securing the filler plate to the back of the library.
Holding the thumbscrews, pull the filler plate gently out of the
library. Save the filler plate in case you need to use it in the future.
2 Insert the t
ape drive into the drive slot. The “shelf” on the bottom of
the drive sled fits into the notch in the library chassis and slides on
the plastic guide rails (see Figure
60 on page 235). The tape drive
must be level to slide in smoothly. At th
e very end of the slide, you
will feel a slight “click” as the tape drive sled connector connects
into its mating connector in the library chassis.
