CAUTION:
Push in on the tape drive handle while supporting the bottom of the tape drive until it is
properly seated. Damage to the connector pins may occur if this procedure is not followed.
To replace a tape drive:
1. Before installing the new drive, inspect the connectors on the tape drive. Ensure that the
connectors are intact, free of any foreign objects, and have no cracks or deformed or bent
contacts.
2. Slowly insert the new tape drive into the drive bay, and align the connectors on the library
while supporting the drive assembly (see Figure 54).
