Hello, I would like to inquire on the TSZ07 Reel-to-Reel tape drive device. We have a prospect who would like to rackmount two units of this TSZ07-AA into a cabinet-based Alphaserver 4100 which has one system drawer and three Storagework shelves BA36R-RA. From the SOC (Nov. 1996 Edition, p6.98), it mentions that the TSZ07-AA is rackmountable. My queries are : 1. Can the TSZ07-AA rackmountable inside the Alphaserver 4100 ? 2. What mounting kit is needed for the TSZ07-AA to be rackmounted inside the Alphaserver 4100 ? (I notice a country kit is needed, but it appears that no mounting kit is mentioned.) Please advise. Best regards Chris

G'Day Chris, > My queries are : >1. Can the TSZ07-AA rackmountable inside the Alphaserver 4100 ? The short answer is yes, Physically it will fit,BUT be careful about heat loading and do not block air paths for the storageworks. Also the 4100 cooling air flows back to front (really weird idea someone had) ie the opposite way to the TSZ07. This could cause recirculation of the cooling air. 2. What mounting kit is needed for the TSZ07-AA to be rackmounted inside the Alphaserver 4100 ? (I notice a country kit is needed, but it appears that no mounting kit is mentioned.) The kit is included in the -AA Please advise. Regards Scott |
