Product Overview
Nonstop TM Himalaya Tape Enclosure
The enclosures can be purchased as a base enclosure or a stackable enclosure. An ESD
rear cover will be on the back of the enclosures to protect the copper and fiber cabling.
The bottom compartment in the base enclosure needs to be left empty for stability and to
avoid physical injury to personnel during installation and operation. All tape enclosures
are configured for the NonStop Himalaya S-series server and are designed to fit both the
5257 drive and the 5257ACL drive.
Tape Enclosure Configuration
Valid configurations for the tape enclosures are:
•
For single enclosures, up to four 5257 drives or two 5257ACL drives can be stored.
Configuration can also include a combination of the 5257 drive and the 5257ACL
drive.
•
For two high enclosures, up to ten 5257 drives or five 5257ACL drives can be
stored. Configuration can also include a combination of the 5257 drive and
5257ACL drive.
