Hard Drive Installation
WARNING
: If you wish to use your current bootable drive with the
Windows NT4 or 2000 operating system on the Ultra100 TX2, do
NOT connect this hard drive to the Ultra100 TX2 controller before
installing the NT or 2000 driver. You MUST install the NT or 2000
driver first (see “INSTALLING DRIVERS” section) to the boot
drive using your existing hard drive controller.
1.
Configure the jumpers of the hard drive you’re preparing to connect to the
Ultra100 TX2 using the proper “Master,” “Slave,” or “Ca ble-Select” settings.
You may need to refer to your hard drive’s manual for more information.
The instructions here assume you will be installing a single drive on to the
Ultra100 TX2 card.
2.
Install the hard drive in the proper hard drive bay of your system.
3.
Attach the Ultra ATA cable to the hard drive and to one of the IDE connector
on the Ultra100 TX2 controller card. The colored edge of the cable(s)
indicates pin 1 (see Figure 2 below), and the blue cable connector must be
attached to the Ultra100 TX2 connector.
4.
Proceed to the Installing Drivers section.
