1. Configure the hard disk in Master mode. For more details, see the section

Hard Disk Configuration’, on page 177.

2. Connect the carrier internal IDE cable and place the hard disk into the disk

tray, fixing it with the four screws (either on the side or on the underside of
the canister depending on the model: see pictures below).

Note

EVS strongly recommends to apply some glue, like the Loxeal
Engineering Adhesive (medium thread locking), on the screw-thread.

3. Place the disk tray cover, and then insert it into the XF[2].
