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 DE200

receiving frame (Figure 5). Refer to the documentation provided by the drive

manufacturer for the location of these terminators or jumpers.

4.

SCSI Drive ID Select Jumpers (Applies to DE200i-SW only): 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 (Figure

6A).

5.

SCSI ID Cable (Applies to DE200i-SW only): The DE200i-SW carrier is

supplied with one (1) 5-wire cable. This cable carries the SCSI ID signal

between the drive and the drive carrier. It permits easy unit ID selection via a

small switch located on the inside of the receiving frame (Figure 10). The cable

is designed to connect to drives with 2mm ID select connectors. Attach the five

(5) connectors from the SCSI unit ID cable to the appropriate drive pins (Figure

7).

The unit ID cable is made up of black, brown, red, orange, and yellow wires.

The black wire is plugged into the drive pin used to select ID0, the brown wire

plugs into the drive pin for ID1, the red wire plugs into the drive pin for ID2, and

the orange wire connects to ID3. Most drive manufacturers label these pins

as ID0, ID1, ID2, and ID3 ,or similar identification. The yellow wire plugs into

the drive activity LED pin.

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

is not used for the DE200 installation. One end of the unit ID cable connects

to the signal row of ID pins on the drive. The other end of this cable attaches

to the unit ID connector on the inside of the carrier (Figures 6A & 7). Refer to

the drive manufacturer's documentation for more information.
