Frame Installation
1. Rail Mount the Frame Assembly.
If the drive bay requires mounting rails, the rails are provided
by the case manufacturer. Install the mounting rails on the
DataPort frame according to the case manufacturer’s instruc-
tions. Slide the frame into the case and secure it.
2. Direct Mount the Frame Assembly.
Slide the frame into an open 5.25” bay in the PC case. Use the
screws included with the DataPort 5 or 5+ to secure the frame
to the PC case with the side mount screw holes.
3. Final Frame Installation.
Connect the data and power cables. Connect an unused SATA
data cable to the DataPort frame data connector and the host
bus adapter. Connect an unused ATA power cable to the power
connector on the frame.
The frame installation is now complete.
Installing a Hard Drive in a Carrier
1. Remove the covers of the DataPort 5 or 5+ carrier.
Use the provided cover removal tool to lift off the cover or slide
the covers off the back of the DataPort carrier.
2. Install the hard drive in your carrier.
Carefully connect the hard drive to the carrier board. Align
the hard drive with the side mount screw holes then use the
provided screws to secure the hard drive in position. For the
DataPort 5+ use a piece of adhesive tape to attach the TCCS
sensor (wire for regulating temperature control) to the middle
of the hard drive. Place the covers back on the DataPort 5 or 5+
carrier.
3. Insert the carrier in the frame assembly.
Slide the carrier into the frame and lock the carrier. The lock
on the DataPort 5 or 5+ serves as the power ‘ON/OFF” switch.
After the lock is engaged the green LED will illuminate when
the computer is powered on.
