Operation
Do not move the drive while it is operating. It may cause malfunction.
Avoid exposing the drive to sudden changes from a low to high in
temperature. This may cause water condensation to collect inside the

turned on , wait at least one hour before turning on the drive. If you
attempt to operate the drive immediately after a sudden increase in
temperature, a malfunction may occur.
Turning off the power to the drive while it is writing to tape may cause
the tape to become unreadable. All previously negotiated parameters will
be lost, whenever power to the drive is cycled.
Upon execution of the hardware reset hole, the driver will be reset and
there is a risk of lost and unreadable data. Thus, please do not use the
hole other than repair purposes. (See page 13)

drive.

drive from the computer, repack the drive into its original packing.
