seating of the drive carrier within the receiving frame, turns power to the drive carrier

on and off, and prevents unauthorized removal or installation of the carrier.For the

computer to access data on the DE300i-SW drive, the key must be turned

counterclockwise to the locked position. The key can be configured as either fixed

or removable as shown in Appendix C.

but not locked in the receiving frame, a "u" will be displayed to indicate an unlocked

condition. The unit number is selected by means of the unit ID select switch inside

the receiving frame using a special alignment tool supplied with the DE300i-SW (see

Figure 10).

the unit number display flashes during device spin down/up, providing a visual
