About the Scorpion 96 autoloader

The Seagate internal Autoloader is a fully integrated,

supports the DDS (Digital Data Storage), DDS-1, DDS-2 and

DDS-3 tape formats. It includes a retractable drawer to

accommodate multicartridge loader magazines.

The internal autoloader is designed to be installed inside a

2. Before you begin

Precautions

!Caution. Observe the following precautions to avoid

electrostatic damage to your internal autoloader.

• Do not remove the drive from the antistatic bag until you

are ready to install it.

• Before you remove the drive from the antistatic bag,

touch a grounded metal surface to discharge any static

electricity buildup from your body.

• Hold the drive only by its edges and avoid direct contact

with any electronic components.

• If you need to put down the drive, lay it on top of the

antistatic bag or place it inside the bag.

Unpacking and inspection

Although Seagate autoloaders are inspected and carefully

packaged at the factory, damage may occur during shipping.

Follow these steps for unpacking the autoloader.

1. Inspect the shipping container. Notify your shipper

immediately if you find any damage.

2. Place the shipping container on a flat, clean, stable

surface. Then carefully remove the contents and verify

the packing list. If parts are missing or the equipment is

damaged notify your Seagate representative.

3. Save the drive container and packing materials in case

you ever need to ship the drive.
