If you are still concerned about the status of your drive
run the Device Analysis Test in HP Library and Tape Tools
(L&TT). Follow any troubleshooting given with the test
results.
NOTE:
Due to issues in development Library and Tape
Tools cannot be reliably used to diagnose potential
issues with the DAT 40 Hotplug drive (Q1546A
only). This problem is currently being investigated
and will be corrected in the next revision of Library
and Tape tools. This note will be updated once the
problem has been corrected but until then do not
use Library and Tape Tools to diagnose issues with
this product. This problem only relates to the
Q1546A product, no other DAT 40 variants are
affected.
