Typical 2mm Drive Pin Configuration
Figure below illustrates a typical SCSI ID select connection to a drive with 2mm ID select pins. Attach
the ID select cable to the drive using the 2mm connectors. Align the ID0 pin with the black wire. Attach
the 1.25mm connector on the other end of the ID select cable to the 1.25mm connector (J3B) provided
on the signal distribution board, located inside the carrier. In most cases, the drive manufacturer labels
the rows of SCSI ID select pins in their significant bit order (0, 1, 2, as shown in figure below). In other
cases, the manufacturer does not clearly label these pins in their significant bit order, but instead uses
pin numbers only. The wires on the wire harness connect to the positive pin (or sig-nal pins) on the disk
drive. In any case, either the odd numbered row of pins or the even numbered row of pins will be the
signal row. Refer to the device manufacturer's documentation for additional pin numbering and jum-
per option information.

the carrier unit. The lock MUST be engaged (turned counterclockwise) in order to supply power
to the carrier and installed drive unit.
