Drive Preparation

1.

Remove the drive from its protective packaging.

2.

SCSI Drive Termination - The last drive on any SCSI channel must have termination

enabled. In most instances, depending upon cable configuration, termination will be

handled by an external terminator on the DS320 back panel. If using an external

terminator, disable onboard termination. Refer to the documentation provided by the

drive manufacturer for the location of these terminators or jumpers. External active

termination is recommended for best SCSI performance (terminator not included with

the DS320).

Removing the Drive Bracket

NOTE:

Removal of the access panel (Figure 4) and drive bracket (Figure 5) is required in

order to install the drive(s). Once the drive(s) are installed into the bracket, the

entire drive/bracket assembly can then be installed into the chassis.

1. Remove the access panel (Figure 4).
2. Remove the four (4) screws securing the drive bracket to the chassis (Figure 5).
3. Remove the drive bracket from the chassis by carefully lifting the rear of the bracket

out first.
