Anyone install a tape drive in a G3v2 ?

I believe in a sys 75 you could hot swap the RMSS tape unit, you may want to power it down so that you don't get a gazillion alarms, either way you want to make sure you have a good translations tape. First check here for the docs:

Blueline,
I did it long time back & if I remmember it correctly,
In system 75, if you have a duplicated system, you can takeout/change the tape dripe of the standby SPE without powering it down, however if you take out the tape drive of the active SPE , it would give a reset to the system.
Don't forget to follow the change procedure for changing the control card(select switch.....)
Best of Luck..
