This User's Guide describes the steps required to install the StorCase Data Express
DE200i-SWU2 removable enclosure inside a computer peripheral bay or external
expansion chassis. This guide supplements documentation provided with the host
computer system, operating system, and the drive to be installed within the Data Express
carrier.
General Description
The StorCase Technology Data Express ® DE200i-SWU2 is composed of a receiving
frame which supports SCSI Wide Ultra2 Low Voltage Differential (LVD) or Single-Ended
interfaces and fits within a 5.25" half-height peripheral slot (Figure 2). This 16-bit, 68-pin
I/O can support up to 80MB/sec (Fast 40) transfer rates. The receiving frame contains
one removable drive carrier designed to provide durable and reliable mounting for one 3.5"
form factor SCSI drive.
The DE200i-SWU2 allows a drive to be removed and transported to another DE200i-
SWU2-equipped computer or expansion chassis, and also provides the ability to secure
sensitive data by removing and storing the drive safely for future use. Up to fifteen (15)
DE200i-SWU2 Data Express units can be attached to one host adapter, with the addition
of a DX1/200-U2/RH Hot Swap/Repeater Isolator Board (refer to Appendix B for further
information).
NOTES: DE200i-SWU2 requires LVD chassis and cabling.
DE200i-SWU2 supports implementations with a maximum of 2 drives
(without the DX1/200-U2/RH Hot Swap/Repeater Isolator Board).
The DE200i-SWU2 was specifically designed for use in high shock and vibration environ-
ments (e.g. aircraft) which may also have non-PVC material requirements. The DE200i-
SWU2 is equipped with manual lockdown thumbscrews to secure the drive carrier within
its receiving frame, and a drive lock/power switch with a fixed key which can be
reconfigured by the user to be removable, if desired. The DE200i-SWU2 uses teflon ID
select and power cables, and halogen-free I/O cables.
