Installing or Replacing the Tape Drive

Take care not to damage the springfingers when installing or replacing the tape drive.

If you are replacing a faulty tape drive in the Netra 150 server, first go to "Removing the Tape Drive", then return here.

Installing the Tape Drive

   • If the tape filler panel is installed, go to Step 2.

   • If the tape filler panel is not installed, go to Step 4.

2. If the tape filler panel is installed, remove the two phillips screws located on the bracket at the front of the tape filler panel.

3. Carefully slide the tape filler panel out of the front of the Netra 150 server.
