DATA EXPRESS 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 Data
Express 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: (Figure 7) The Data Express carrier is supplied with one (1)
5-wire cable. This cable is used for remote ID selection by means of the
Data Express Unit Select Switch inside the receiving frame. The cable is
designed to connect to drives with 2mm ID Select connectors.
The cables are made up of black, brown, red, orange and yellow wires.
The black wire is plugged into the pin used to select ID0, the brown wire
plugs into the pin for ID1, the red wire plugs into the pin for ID2 and the
orange wire connects to ID3. Most drive manufacturers mark these pins
with some sort of identification which corresponds to ID0, ID1, ID2 and ID3.
The yellow wire is not used on the wide SCSI Interface. LED activity is
handled through the Data Express logic.
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.
