Installing the drive
The STT3401A can be installed in a one-half-inch high by 3.5-inch form factor drive
bay or in a one-inch high by 5.25-inch form factor (with mounting brackets). The
drive can be installed in three different orientations: horizontally (LED to the left) and
vertically (on either side).
The following section provides directions for mounting the drive in either a 3.5-inch
enclosure or in a 5.25-inch enclosure.
1. Before you install the drive, write down the serial number and model number
shown on the drive and store this information in a safe place. You need this
information if you ever call for service.
2. With the computer cover removed, remove the faceplate from the drive bay in
which you plan to install the drive. Refer to the manual that you received with
your computer for instructions about removing the computer's faceplate.
Note: If devices are installed in any drive bays adjacent to the one you are using
for the internal drive, partially removing those devices might give you more
working space.
3. Attach any special mounting hardware to the drive that your system might
require. Refer to the manual that you received with your computer for
requirements.
4. Locate the mounting screw holes in the drive brackets. Each side contains two
sets of holes. Use the set that aligns the drive properly within the drive bay.
5. Slide the tape drive into the computer so that the drive bezel and the computer
faceplate are flush. Figure 7 shows the screws used to mount the STT2401A in
a 5.25-inch drive bay.
