7226 LTO drive choices
| Drive assembly | Part number | Feature code |
|---|---|---|
| LTO 9 Fibre Channel | 02XW377 | 8646 |
| LTO 9 SAS | 02XW382 | 8641 |
| LTO 8 Fibre Channel | 01PL322 | 8546 |
| LTO 8 SAS | 01PL319 | 8541 |
| LTO 7 Fibre Channel | 38L7507 | 8446 |
| LTO 7 SAS | 38L7504 | 8441 |
| LTO 6 Fibre Channel | 35P1060 | 8348 |
| LTO 6 SAS | 35P1049 | 8341 |
| LTO 5 Fibre Channel | 35P3077 | 8248 |
| LTO 5 SAS | 46X5683 | 8241 |
| LTO 5 SAS, alternate catalog context | 46C2007 | 8247 |
These numbers identify internal 7226 drive assemblies. A similarly named external TS22xx drive includes a different enclosure and must not be substituted as a bare assembly.
7226 RDX and DAT choices
| Device | Capacity | Part number | Feature |
|---|---|---|---|
| RDX | 320 GB | 46C5394 | EU08 |
| RDX | 1 TB | 46C2335 | EU01 |
| RDX | 1.5 TB | 46C2831 | EU15 |
| RDX | 2 TB | 46C2527 | EU2T |
| DAT | 80 GB | 23R9723 | 5619 |
| DAT USB | 160 GB | 46C2458 | EU16 |
RDX capacity is removable-disk cartridge capacity. DAT and LTO are different tape technologies; the media and drive assemblies do not interchange.
7226 host and rack planning
Record both device positions, their feature codes and the server adapters before changing the enclosure. A SAS tape drive, Fibre Channel tape drive and USB RDX device need different host connections. Check the Power model and operating-system release for the selected device, then allow rear clearance for every fitted cable.
IBM 7226-1U3 configuration qualifications
- The enclosure page also labels 35P1049 as feature 8441 in one line. Its dedicated 8341 product page pairs 35P1049 with LTO 6 SAS; the LTO 7 SAS entry is 38L7504 / 8441. Keep the source contexts separate.
Plan your IBM 7226-1U3 configuration
- Identify the hardware. Send the complete model and serial number with drive labels, installed firmware and host adapter details.
- Check the backup job. Include the operating system, backup application and full-save size with the available backup and restore windows.
- Record retention and media. Include cartridge generations or disk retention, the key-management arrangement and the off-site recovery copy.
- Confirm installation. Record rack or floor space, rear service clearance and the existing power and cable connections.
