This drive also includes Quantum FastSense™ technology for optimizing
drive and host data transfer rates.
The Travan 40GB can read and write Travan 40 cartridges. It can read but
not write Travan 20 or NS20 (TR-5) cartridges.

configuration.
Note: This drive cannot use TR-1, TR-2, TR-3, TR-4, or QIC-80

2Installing the Drive
What You Will Need 2
You will need a standard flat-bladed screwdriver and a PHILLIPS®
screwdriver to install the tape drive in your computer.
This tape drive must be attached to a secondary IDE port.If your computer
has two IDE ports, and the secondary port is not being used, you may
need to obtain a 40-pin IDE interface cable for your tape drive.
If your computer has only a single IDE port, you will need to obtain a
new ATAPI host adapter that provides a secondary IDE port for the tape
drive. You will also need a second 40-pin IDE interface cable for your
tape drive.
Important Precautions 2
To protect your computer and drive from electrostatic damage, follow
these guidelines:
Before you open your computer or remove the drive from its antistatic
bag, ground yourself by touching the metal chassis of your computer or
Installing the Drive
Installation Procedure

some other grounded object. For optimal protection, use an electrostatic
grounding strap.
Do not touch any printed circuit boards or electronic chips on your drive
or in your computer.
Installation Procedure 2
Follow the steps below to install the Travan 40GB drive in your
computer.
We recommend that you install your backup software before you install
your tape drive. For more information, see the instructions that came
with the backup software.
1Decide where to attach the tape drive
Before you install your tape drive, you should determine how many
IDE ports your computer has. You may find this information in the
manual for your computer. You can also look inside your computer
and compare your system with figure 1, figure 2, and figure 3.
If your computer has two IDE ports:
Most modern computers have two IDE ports. Each port can support
up to two devices (on a single IDE cable). A hard disk is usually
attached to the primary IDE port, see figure 1. However, the Travan 40
should not be attached to an IDE port that is being used by a hard disc
or a sound card. Thus, you must use the secondary IDE port for your
tape drive.
Note: To be properly grounded, your computer must be plugged into
a grounded electrical outlet.

If no devices or cables are attached to the secondary IDE port (see
figure 1) you will need to obtain a second IDE cable for your tape
drive.
If a CD-ROM or other compatible device is attached to the secondary
IDE port (see figure 2) you can install the tape drive on the same cable
as the CD-ROM.

Continue to page 7 for instructions on setting the master/slave
jumpers.
If your computer has only one IDE port:
If your computer has only a single IDE port (see figure 3) it is
probably being used by the hard disc drive. You should not attach
your tape drive to an IDE port that is being used by a hard disc or a
sound card.
In this situation, before you can install the tape drive, you must
purchase an ATAPI host adapter that provides a second IDE port.
You will also need a second IDE cable for the tape drive. After
installing the host adapter, set the master/slave jumpers.
