Part 1: Installation, use, and maintenance

guide

This guide contains product description, hardware and software installation

instructions, and product use and maintenance information. For information on solving

problems, see Appendix D, “Problem solving” on page 2-4.

Product description

The 40/80 GB1 DLT Internal Tape Drive is a fast/wide Ultra-2 (low voltage

differential) tape drive for backing up and restoring data and archiving files. These

files can include multimedia, imaging, transaction processing, large databases, and

other storage-intensive applications. Each tape cartridge can store up to 40 GB of data

(uncompressed), or up to 80 GB of data (compressed), assuming a 2:1 compression

ratio.

In addition to this book, the option package contains:

IBM 40/80 GB DLT Internal Tape Drive

 Mounting screws

 Jumpers

 Data cartridge

Backup application CDs (trial versions)

Safety Information manual

Contact your place of purchase if an item is missing or damaged. Be sure to retain

your proof of purchase and packing material. They might be required to receive

warranty service.

Software description

The 40/80 GB DLT Internal Tape Drive includes trial-version backup application CDs.

These CDs contain popular backup and restore applications for Microsoft Windows

NT, Novell NetWare, and other operating systems. You can install the application

you choose for your computer system by following the installation instructions that

come with the CD you select. However, these trial versions of the software expire

after 30 or 90 days, depending on the application you use.

You can use the trial period to determine the best application for your specific

computer configuration. For information on purchasing a permanent installation copy

of the desired tape drive backup application, go to the IBM tape drive Web site at

1GB equals approximately 1000000000 bytes.

http://www.ibm.com/pc/us/solutions/accessories/tapedrives.html and follow the software

links.

The CDs also contain backup applications that are used with other products but are not

applicable to the 40/80 GB DLT Internal Tape Drive. Supported tape drive

configurations can be found on the IBM Netfinity Server Compatibility Web page at

http://www.ibm.com/pc/compat

Installation requirements

To install this drive, you must have the following:

Low voltage differential (Ultra2) SCSI host adapter, or a single-ended (SE) 3

SCSI host adapter

Documentation for your computer, SCSI bus adapter, or external enclosure

An Ultra2 LVD active terminator if you are installing the tape drive at the end of

an Ultra2 LVD SCSI device chain2

An SE active terminator if you are installing the tape drive at the end of an SE

SCSI device chain3

Phillips head and flat blade screwdrivers for the mounting screws, and for

opening your computer

Flat-nose pliers (optional) to install and remove jumpers

An available 5.25-inch drive bay

Installing the drive

This section contains information on installing the tape drive in IBM servers and in

other computers.

2This tape drive can be installed on a single-ended (SE) SCSI device chain, but doing so might

limit the performance of the drive.

3SCSI termination might be provided with your computer or SCSI adapter. Refer to the

documentation that comes with your computer or SCSI adapter for more information.

4If you are using a Netfinity 8500, 8500R, or 7000 server, you must install the tape drive in a

SCSI external storage enclosure such as the IBM 3551-001 or IBM 3503-BOX.

1-2 40/80 GB DLT Internal Tape Drive

Installing the drive in IBM servers

The tape drive is compatible with the Netfinity 8500 or 8500R4, Netfinity 70008,

Netfinity 5500, and Netfinity 5000 servers. For instructions on installing the tape

drive in a server, go to the “Installing Internal Drives” section in the server’s User’s

Handbook and follow the directions for “Installing a 5.25-inch Removable-Media

Drive.”

Note: The server User’s Handbook instructions refer specifically to installing a

half-high drive in a single bay in the server. Your tape drive is a full-high drive

and must be installed in both drive bays in the server.

Part 1: Installation, use, and maintenance guide 1-3

Installing the drive in other computers

Follow these steps to install the tape drive in other computers.

Step 1. Selecting a SCSI ID

Each device on a SCSI bus must have a unique SCSI ID. You can select a SCSI ID

from 0 to 6 for the tape drive. The SCSI ID must be supported by your SCSI adapter.

Refer to your SCSI adapter documentation for the range and the relative priority of the

IDs supported. The tape drive is shipped with the SCSI ID preset to 5.

Follow these guidelines to select a SCSI ID:

Assign the tape drive to one of the higher priority IDs available (0–6).

Assign the lower priority ID numbers (8–15) to those devices that are most often

used or are faster than other devices in the chain.

Do not assign an ID of 7, because this is usually used as the SCSI adapter ID.

Depending on your computer, there are several ways to view your current SCSI ID

settings:

For many IBM computers, press F1 during the startup after the memory check

completes. Other adapters show SCSI settings when you press Ctrl+A. Check

the documentation that comes with your computer or SCSI adapter for

information on how to view configuration information.

Use SCSI adapter utility programs, if available.

Inspect the installed SCSI devices to see how the jumpers that determine the IDs

are set.

Step 2. Preparing for installation

To prepare for installation:

1. Turn off all attached devices. Turn off the computer. Unplug the power cords

for the computer and all attached devices; then open the computer. For specific

information on opening your computer, refer to the documentation that comes

with your computer.

Attention: Tape drives are sensitive to static electricity discharge. The drives

are wrapped in a static-protective bag to prevent damage.

2. Before opening the static-protective bag containing the tape drive, touch the bag

to an unpainted metal surface on the computer for at least two seconds. Remove

the drive from the static-protective bag. If you must put the drive down, place

the drive on the static-protective bag. Do not touch any exposed components of

the tape drive. Instead, handle it carefully by the edges.
