Installing the SCSI Cable and Disk Drives

The procedures in this section describe how to install the 18GB disk drive upgrade
in Profile systems that require the SCSI cable installation. Refer to Table 1 on
page 14 to determine if you need to install the SCSI cable in your system.

The procedures in this section include:

Removing the Top Covers

Removing Disk Drives To Access the SCSI Backplane

Installing the SCSI Cable

Installing Disk Drives

Reassembling the Profile System

Creating the Disk File System

Grass Valley Group recommends removing the Profile system from the rack to
perform this upgrade. Refer to the Profile Installation Manual for instructions on
removing the Profile system from the rack. Observe the following warnings:

To prevent injury, two people are required to lift the Profile system. The
Profile system is too heavy for one person to remove from the rack.

To prevent injury, insure that the rack is anchored to the floor so that it
cannot tip over when the Profile Video File Server is extended out of the rack.

Once you have gained access to the Profile system chassis covers, proceed to the
next procedure, “Removing the Top Covers”.
