Before installing the tape drive, verify the
configuration details for the specific tape drive and
server combination that you are installing. For
current information about supported SAS HBAs and
cabling configurations, see the compatibility matrix
guide at:

Preparing the server
The tape drive connects to a SAS host controller
or HBA that supports tape devices.
If the host does NOT have a spare SAS port,
install a new SAS HBA and any required HBA
drivers.
If the server does not have a PCI slot available
for a new HBA, see the user guide for
additional options.
For current information about supported SAS HBAs,
see the compatibility matrix guide at:

Install the tape drivers
Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends installing
the tape drivers on the server before connecting
the tape drive. Use the Tape driver with the
Windows operating systems unless the software
application requires a different driver.
For driver, firmware, and software updates, see
drivers & downloads on the support website:

Verifying the server SAS connector type
The cable supplied with the product connects to a
Mini SAS (SFF-8087) connector on a dedicated
HBA or host SAS controller. This is a split cable,
but the second branch is not normally required. Do
not remove the plastic cover on the spare
connector.
NOTE: To connect the tape drive to a SAS
4i (SFF-8484) or other type of SAS port, you
must supply the appropriate cable.
