Installing System Components
Removing and Replacing the Tape Drive Cable Retention Bracket
The optional tape drive available with the 3.5" x4 and 2.5" x8 backplane configurations connects to the
system board through an expansion card plugged into one of the PCI expansion card slots. The tape drive
cable is routed along the right side of the chassis and behind the tape drive cable retention bracket.
To remove the tape drive cable retention bracket, gently draw the blue release latch toward the center of
the system while sliding the cable retention bracket toward the front of the system and disengaging the
bracket from the chassis wall. See Figure 3-26.
To replace the bracket, align the bracket clips with their slots on the chassis wall, then slide the bracket
toward the back of the system until all the clips and the blue release latch are fully engaged.
