In an SL8500 library with redundant robotics, it is best to install drives in the:
A.
first and third columns
B.
inner two columns
C.
outer two columns
D.
second and fourth columns
Explanation:
Install drives in the outer two columns (± 2) first—this allows both HandBots to
access drives at the same time.
Note: Redundant Robotics
A single SL8500 rail section can accommodate two robots, for a total of eight robots per library.
These robots can operate in parallel, significantly increasing the overall performance of the library.StorageTek SL8500 Modular Library System, Best Practises Grouping Tape Drives
