Verifying Drive Operation
Once you have installed the drive hardware, you should verify that it is functioning properly before you store your valuable data. Turn on the system. For
external drives, turn on the drive before you turn on the system.
The tape drive will run its POST, which checks all hardware except for the drive head. The single-character display will present a series of random characters,
and then become blank (not lit). The status light will briefly become solid amber, and then become solid green.
Verify that the tape drive installation was successful. Following the instructions given with your Tape Backup Software application, write test data to a tape,
read the test data from the tape, and compare the data read from the tape with the original data on disk.
