If you choose the default SCSI address of 5, proceed to Step 4. If you need to change
the SCSI address, use the SCSI ID jumper block to set your SCSI ID.Remove
and reposition jumpers to set the ID. If necessary, use a pair of flat-nose pliers to
remove the jumpers. The following illustration shows how to set the jumper block for
each ID. Use the jumpers that come with your tape drive.

Step 4. Mounting the drive
Mount the tape drive; then attach the SCSI and power cables to it. If there is
insufficient working space to attach the connectors after mounting the drive, attach the
cables first (see “Step 5. Attaching cables”). To mount the drive:
1. Locate an available 5.25-inch bay or space in your computer to mount the tape
drive. Remove the cover plate from the bay selected. Place the drive
horizontally or vertically.
2. Align the drive-bay screw holes with the threaded holes in the drive housing.
When you mount the tape drive, follow these guidelines:
Ensure that no objects such as screw heads, cables, or adjacent devices are
pressing against the frame.
Ensure that nothing blocks the ventilation slots on the bottom and rear of the
tape drive.
3. Insert a screw through each of the drive-bay holes into the threaded holes in the
drive and tighten the screws with a screwdriver. Use only the screws that come
with the tape drive. Other screws might be too long and cause electrical shorts.
Step 5. Attaching cables
The rear tape drive connections are:
1 SCSI cable connector
2 Power connector
