NOTE:

The number of tape cartridge slots depends on the drive technology used and, on a mixed-media system,

on the ratio of Ultrium and SDLT panels used and their locations. The number of back panel slots

depends on how many drive clusters are in the library. See

SDLT library

, and

Mixed media library

for

tape cartridge quantity information.

To slide the slot panels out of the cabinet, press the slot panel latches down and pull the slot panel out of

the cabinet (see
