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: The DE100i-SWU2X does not provide onboard
termination. External termination must be provided. Refer to the documentation
provided by the drive manufacturer for termination information.
4.
ID Select Jumpers: Locate the ID select jumper positions on the disk drive,
and remove any jumper plugs in this area. The ID select cable will be installed
into this section of the drive.
5.
ID Select Cable: (Figure 6 & 7) The DE100i-SWU2X carrier is supplied with
one (1) 5-wire cable. This cable is used for remote ID selection by means of
the ID 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
plugs into the Remote Activity LED pin (Figure 5).
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.
