HP Autoloader 1/9 Product id : C7145-8000

Any known issue with this device (with dlt 8000):
I have the following error :
"Drive module disconnected or has failed. Drive module is missing or not communcating"
"Failed exchange from transport to transport to transport"
"Error code 74, qualifier 42
sequence.... 0,0,0,0,0,0"
The boot sequence takes ages, with the autloader looking to set up the drive to no avail.
The drive is put offline ; trying to bring it online manually (online drive repair menu) failed.
I have run tests wellessness etc.. that went ok.
I have upgraded autoloader firmware to rev 2710
I have seen someone posting with a similar error, so I guess this error is rather commonplace.
