Chapter Two – Installation
1. Check that the drive is not engaged in any SCSI activity.
2. Insert the firmware upgrade tape into the drive. The upgrade process automatically takes place.
During the actual erasure and reprogramming of the firmware, it is critical that you do not power
down the drive. The front panel LEDs flash rapidly during this critical time. After about three
minutes, when the upgrade is complete, the cartridge ejects.
3. Remove it, and put it in its box.
Note
: If the firmware upgrade is incompatible with the hardware, no upgrade takes place. The tape is
ejected after about one minute instead of the usual three minutes.
