Important
If you are installing a replacement drive, install the new drive in the same location
as the old drive.
Important
Follow this precaution if your FC tape drive has the connectors on the side, as
shown Figure 10.
While sliding a Fibre Channel tape drive located in the left-most location into the
library, ensure that you hold the Fibre Channel cable of the adjacent Fibre Channel
tape drive out of the way to prevent damaging the cable.
