6. Secure the drive using the mounting screws. The threaded mounting brackets
are designed for M3.0 metric screws. If you are mounting the drive in a 3.5-inch
bay, use the screw supplied with the drive. Do not substitute other screws.
Using longer screws may damage the drive. If slide rails are needed, use the
plastic slide rails (supplied with the drive in some configurations).
7. Connect an available power cable to the power connector on the drive. Figure
3-1 shows the location of the power connector. The recommended power
mating connector requires an AMP 1-48024-0 housing with AMP 60617-1 pins
or equivalent.
Note: Turn off all power before inserting connectors.
8. Connect the interface cable with the connector on the rear of the unit. When
you make the connection, be sure pin 1 of the connector aligns with pin 1 on
the cable connector. See Figure 3-1 for the location of the connector and the
Pin 1 location.
Note: Pin 1 on the connector on the rear of the drive is to your right as you look at
the back of the drive (right side up). (See Figure 3-1.) Your cable should
have Pin 1 highlighted by a color or dark strip. Be sure to mate Pin 1 on the
cable to Pin 1 on the drive. Failure to do so could make the drive
inoperative. Also, the cable is keyed to prevent incorrect installation. Make
sure that the blocked pin in the cable connector coincides with the missing
pin on the connector on the rear of the drive. (See Figure 3-1.)
9. Replace the computer cover. Be sure to reconnect any peripherals that you
disconnected during the installation.
10. Plug the computer and any peripherals into an AC power outlet.
11. Start the computer and install your tape backup software.
