13. Mount the PlexWriter drive in the computer using the four screws that were
supplied with your drive. Use only these screws.
CAUTION: Do not mount your drive in your computer using screws other than those
supplied by Plextor. You may damage the drive if you insert screws that are too long.
SCSI Cable Connection Hints
If you have more than one peripheral device (the PlexWriter drive and one other
peripheral), connect the two peripherals to the other two connectors. The device
farthest from the SCSI must have its termination set to ON. (Refer to page 13 of this
manual for information about SCSI termination.)
Install a PlexWriter External SCSI Drive
To install a PlexWriter external SCSI drive, decide which cables you use, and
whether you need to change the switch, dial, and terminator settings on your
PlexWriter and other peripherals.
CAUTION: Install your PlexWriter horizontally. Plextor does not guarantee the drive’s
performance in a vertical position.
Before proceeding, double-check your SCSI number setting, SCSI termination
setting, and other switch-controlled settings.
