Installing the New Drive Tray and Drives

The new drive tray is pre-assembled, and contains the new SCSI backplane,
SCSI cabling, and power cables. It does not contain the new 9 GB media drives,
which are packaged separately. Install the new tray first, then install the new
media drives as described in the following sections.

Installing the Drive Tray

The new drive tray fits into the same location as the old one. The mounting
screws fit in the same holes both on the sides and bottom of the chassis.

1. Remove the tape securing the On/Standby switch cable to the right wall of the

fan tray cavity and lift the cable clear of the drive tray cavity.

2. Lay the SCSI and power cables in the bottom of the drive tray. Pull the LED

cable (the cable that is threaded through the slot in the corner of the tray) back
into the tray and lay it on the bottom.

3. Lower the drive tray into the PDR100 chassis. Maneuver the tray carefully,

being careful to not trap any cables. Tipping the tray toward the rear of the
chassis aids in clearing the front lip of the chassis and other chassis parts that
are obstructions. See Figure 17.

4. Line up the tray and install the screws that mount through the sides of the

chassis. See Figure 17.

5. Slide the PDR100 over the edge of the bench (or tip the PDR100 up on its side)

far enough to expose the bottom mounting screw holes. Install the four T15
screws through the bottom of the chassis into the bottom of the drive tray. See
Figure 17.

NOTE: When installing components such as the drive tray into the
PDR100 chassis, do not immediately tighten any of the screws. This
will let you align screw holes when installing other components. Be
sure to tighten all the screws once all the components are installed.
