Please note the following when installing the i-Drive:
2.1
Assembly
➜
Attention:
Switch off the power supply to the computer before removing the
computer’s case.
The i-Drive can be installed in any unused 3.5" or 5.25" drive bay. The threaded holes
at the side correspond to those of a 3.5" standard floppy drive and are positioned
such that the front panel of the i-Drive is flush with the front of the computer’s
case. The threaded holes at the bottom of the i-Drive are used to attach the drive to
a standard 5.25” drive mounting kit. The i-Drive can be installed in the computer at
any angle.
2.2
Power supply
The i-Drive has a standard power connector for 3.5" floppy drives. Attach an unused
power connector from the computer’s power supply to the power connector on the
i-Drive. If necessary, use the supplied power supply cable adapter 5.25" to 3.5".
2.3
SCSI connection
The i-Drive is connected SCSI bus with a standard SCSI 50-pin 2-row ribbon cable con-
nector (pins on a 0.1" grid).
➜
Attention:
If the connector on the ribbon cable does not have a polarizing key,
make sure that the red mark or arrow on the edge of the ribbon cable connects
to pin 1 of the SCSI connector !
