INSTALLATION

Installing the Drive into the Carrier

Preparation

While performing the steps in this section, work on a soft surface to prevent excessive shock

to the drive being installed. Also refer to the manufacturer's documentation provided with the
drive.

NOTE:

A #2 Phillips screwdriver will be required during this procedure.

1.

Remove the drive from its protective packaging.

2.

Plastic Drive Bezel: If the drive came equipped with a plastic front bezel, it

must be removed.

3.

SCSI Drive Termination: Disable or remove the termination resistor packs

from the drive. Termination is handled by an external terminator in the

DE100i-S receiving frame. Refer to the documentation provided by the drive

manufacturer for the location of these terminators or jumpers.

4.

SCSI Drive ID Select Jumpers: Locate the SCSI ID Select Jumper positions

on the disk drive, and remove any jumper plugs in this area. The SCSI ID cable

will be installed into this section of the drive.

5.

SCSI ID Cable: The DE100i-S carrier is supplied with one (1) 4-wire cable.

This cable is used for remote ID selection via jumpers located on the rear of the

receiving frame.

The cable consists of black, brown, red, and yellow wires. The black wire

is plugged into the pin used to select ID0, the brown wire plugs into the pin for

ID1, and the red wire plugs into the pin for ID2. The yellow wire plugs into the

pin for Drive Activity Signal.

Disk drives use a row of pins to provide ground to the ID signals. This row of

pins is not used when installing the ID select cable to the carrier connector.

Refer to the drive manufacturer's documentation for more information.
