Referencing Tape Drive Compatibility
Tape drives are enclosed in a universal drive sled. You can hot swap and hot add all supported drives,
regardless of type. The library supports the following types of tape drives:
• IBM LTO-1 or LTO-2 LVD–SCSI
• IBM LTO-1, LTO-2, LTO-3, LTO-4
• HP LTO-3, LTO-4, LTO-5 FC Multi-mode
• Quantum SDLT-320 LVD–SCSI
• Quantum SDLT-600 FC
• Quantum DLT-S4 FC
LTO drives can be connected directly to hosts, to the storage area network (SAN), or to FC I/O blades in
the I/O management unit. SCSI drives must be connected directly to hosts or the SAN.
