The VXA-320 tape drive is designed for the storage and management of enterprise-wide, mission-critical data. 160 gigabytes (GB) of uncompressed (native) data on a 230-meter VXAtape 12 megabytes (MB) per second (native) and is read/write compatible with the second-generation VXA tape drive (VXA-2) VXA-320 external model VXA-055A VXA-320 internal model 3 3 Figure 1-1 VXA-320 tape drives (internal and external models) TAPE DRIVE MODELS AND INTERFACES For simple and convenient system integration, the VXA-320 tape drive is available in external and internal models. The internal VXA-320 complies with industry standard 5.25-inch half-high form factor mounting requirements and can be mounted horizontally or vertically. The external standalone model is housed in an enclosure that allows the device to be placed horizontally or vertically on a flat surface. External models can also be stacked. Neither model can be operated upside down. OCTOBER 2006 VXA-320 TAPE DRIVE 1 CHAPTER 1 FEATURES Both the internal and external models of the VXA-320 tape drive are available with a wide, High-density (HD), 68-pin low-voltage differential (LVD) SCSI interface. COMPONENTS This section describes the major components of both the internal and external models of the tape drive. FRONT PANEL COMPONENTS Figure 1-2 and Figure 1-3 show the controls and indicators on the front panel of the tape drive. For more information about using these controls and indicators, see Chapter 3.

Power LED Shows the power-on status of the external tape drive. BACK PANEL COMPONENTS ­ INTERNAL TAPE DRIVE Figure 1-4 shows the back panel components of the internal SCSI tape drive. For more information about using these components during installation, see Chapter 2. Fan SCSI connector Auxiliary connector Grounding tab SCSI ID jumper block Grounding hole RF service connector Power connector Figure 1-4 Internal tape drive: back-panel components Fan Provides cooling to maintain proper operating temperature at the tape path. SCSI Connector Used to connect the tape drive to the SCSI bus. This is a 68-pin LVD SCSI connector. (See Table 6-4 for pin assignments.) Auxiliary Connector Used for tape drive diagnostics. SCSI ID Jumper Block (SCSI model only) Used to set the SCSI ID. Grounding Tab and Hole Used to provide additional chassis grounding. (The mounting screws also provide grounding for the tape drive.) RF Service Connector Reserved for Tandberg Data Service personnel. Power Connector Used to connect a power cable from the enclosure's power supply. This is a 4-pin connector. (See Table 6-4 for pin assignments.) OCTOBER 2006 VXA-320 TAPE DRIVE 3 CHAPTER 1 FEATURES BACK PANEL COMPONENTS ­ EXTERNAL TAPE DRIVE Figure 1-5 shows the back-panel components of the external SCSI model of the tape drive. Figure 1-5 External tape drive: back-panel components On/Off Switch Used to turn power on and off. AC Power Connector Used to provide power through a grounded AC power connector. A power cord is included with the tape drive. Serial Connector Used to connect the tape drive to the serial port of a computer for performing diagnostic operations with VXATool (see page 31). SCSI Connectors (SCSI tape drive only) Used to connect the tape drive to the SCSI bus with two SCSI cables or one SCSI cable and a terminator. These connectors are 68-pin high-density LVD SCSI connectors. SCSI ID Switch Used to set the SCSI ID. 4 PRODUCT MANUAL 433689-01 COMPONENTS TAPE DRIVE LABELS The VXA-320 tape drive includes two labels: The top-panel label (Figure 1-6) shows the tape drive's part number, serial number, revision, connector type, and agency information. The back-panel label (Figure 1-7) identifies the tape drive connectors and jumpers. Depending on the model tape drive you have, the labels on your tape drive may differ. Caution Do not remove or modify these labels. If you do so, you will void the product warranty.
