This poster describes how to install an HP StorageWorks Ultrium 3000/1760/920/480  
SAS tape drive on a SAS server.

Connect the SAS cable  
WARNING: To avoid personal injury or damage to the server or tape drive,  
disconnect your server from the mains power supply before installing the tape drive.  
To avoid damage to server or tape drive observe all recommended anti-static and  
power-grounding precautions, as specified in your server and tape drive manuals.  
The supplied cable connects to a mini-SAS (SFF-8086/8087) connector on the dedicated  
HBA or host SAS controller. This is a split cable, but the second branch is not normally  
required. Do NOT remove the tie wrap and cover on the spare connector.  
Option 1: Connect to a separate HBA  
(recommended)  
Internal tape drive

For the most up-to-date information about supported SAS HBAs and cabling  
configurations, refer to www.hp.com/go/connect and be sure to check the details of  
the specific tape drive and server combination that you require.  
Not sure how to use go/connect?  
Select tape backup and navigate down to the Hardware Compatibility table for your  
make of server. The server/tape drive matrix shows top-level compatibility, but be sure to  
click on the tick for your combination of server and tape drive to display a further page  
with detailed connectivity information.  
Your Ultrium tape drive is supplied with a split SAS cable with two mini-SAS connectors  
and integrated power connector. The recommended options for using this cable are:  
• Connect to a spare SAS connector on the SAS controller.  
• If the SAS controller does not have a spare SAS connector, install a new HBA and  
use the cable to connect to it.  
REAR  
NOTE: If both SAS ports are in use and you wish to connect to the host SAS controller,  
you can use the split cable to replace one of the existing SAS cables. However, caution  
is advised for this installation because it diverts one of the data paths from the hard  
disk drive bays to the tape drive. You may lose the use of one of the hard disk drives.  
D
NOTE: If you wish to connect the tape drive to a SAS 4i (SFF-8484) connector, you  
must purchase the appropriate cable. See http:\\www.hp.com\go\connect for  
recommended cables.
