1. Perform “Preparing a Library or Library Module for Repairs” on page 11-2.
2. Disconnect the power supply by unplugging each end of the power cord in the
proper sequence.
Attention: First, disconnect the power cord from the power source. Then,
disconnect the power cord from the power supply receptacle (

Figure 11-3).
3. Remove the drive slot cover plate.

slot by turning the two thumbscrews (

to loosen them and then removing the cover plate (

Figure 11-4 on page 11-7 shows a control module with one SCSI drive sled
installed (

has been removed.

drive, you will need to reinstall the cover plate.
