[. . . ] Mount the tape drive in the system by performing the following steps: 1 Position the tape drive in the system and align the tape drive mounting holes (side or bottom) with those in the system. Figure 9 shows the mounting locations and dimensions for the tape drive. Caution: The screws used to mount the tape drive must be M3 x 8mm long. This type of screw is exactly the proper length and will not damage the tape drive.
2 Using four M3 x 8mm long screws, secure the tape drive in the bay or chassis.

Connecting the Internal Tape Drive Cables This section discusses three connectors on the back of the internal SDLT 600 tape drive: 1) SCSI, 2) power, and 3) optional library/loader connectors. Figure 10 shows some typical AC power cord connectors used for the tabletop model. SCSI and Power Connectors Figure 13 on page 60 shows the pin orientation for the 68-pin SCSI connector and 4-pin power connector located on the back of the internal tape drive. The tables list pin assignments for the two possible SCSI connectors: Multi-mode Single-Ended (MSE)/Single Ended (SE) mode in table 27,

and MSE Low Voltage Differential (LVD) mode in table 28 on page 53. Pin assignments for the power connector are listed in table 29 on page 55. 1 Before connecting the SDLT 600 tape drive to the host computer, be certain the tape drive and computer are powered off. 2 Ensure that your SCSI cables and terminators are SPI-3 (or SPI-4) compatible. SPI refers to SCSI Parallel Interface; you can learn more about this standard at the Web site http://www. t10. org. 3 If you are connecting several devices to the SCSI bus, connect only the tape drive to the host computer at this time. Confirm that the host computer and tape drive are communicating correctly before adding additional devices. You may need to terminate this tape drive if one of the following conditions exist: · · The SDLT 600 tape drive is the only device connected to the SCSI bus. The SDLT 600 tape drive is one of several devices connected to the SCSI bus, and it is the last device connected to the SCSI bus.
5 If either condition exists in step 4, attach a Y adaptor cable to the tape drive's SCSI connector; then attach the SCSI cable to one leg of the "Y" and attach the terminator to the other leg. Carefully connect the cables, to avoid bending or damaging the connector pins. Note: You must supply the Y adaptor cable to connect both the SCSI connector and the terminator to the tape drive.
6 Attach the power cables to the tape drive. Check the SCSI cable and termination connections and ensure that they are attached correctly and seated firmly.
Optional Loader Connector
3
The 8-pin optional loader connector provides signals to be used when the tape drive is part of a loader/library configuration. Figure 11 on page 57 shows the location of this connector; Table 30 on page 55 lists the pin assignments for the loader connector.

Configuring and Installing an Internal Tape Drive with Fibre Channel Interface 3
This section provides information for configuring and installing a tape drive with the Fibre Channel interface into a system.
Fibre Channel Introduction 3 Fibre Channel is the name of an integrated set of standards developed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The intention of the Fibre Channel specification is to develop a practical, inexpensive, yet expandable means of quickly transferring data between workstations, mainframes, supercomputers, desktop computers, storage devices, display terminals, and other peripherals.

Fibre Channel is an open T11 and ANSI standard based on a blockoriented serial network protocol that brings together some of the best features of the channel world and the network world. Fibre Channel is full-duplex (meaning that data can travel in both directions simultaneously), and offers a variety of different cabling options. Fibre Channel is a high performance serial link transport protocol that supports higher level protocols such as the FDDI, SCSI, HIPPI, and IPI. [. . . ] PWA Printed Wiring Assembly.
