Upgrade drive in Storageworks 1/8 G2

[Phil Schroeder]

I have a Storageworks 1/8 G2 with an Ultrium 448 drive that died. I would like to replace the drive with a 920 (LTO 3). Is this possible?

Hello Phil,

that is possible, but you need a suitable drive for the autoloader. I think the only way will be to buy a spare part. Ask you local HP partner for the right drive and part number.

Best regards,
Patrick

Which will be:

If you look up the model in PartSurfer
