1.1 FRAME INSTALLATION
a. Slide the Rhino Jr RJ110 removable drive enclosure into an open 5.25” drive bay in your
computer workstation.
b. Secure the RJ110 to the chassis with the mounting screws provided.
c. Attach SATA data and power cables from your computer and connect them to the SATA
data and power connectors on the rear of the RJ110. Ensure that the other end of the SATA
data cable is attached to the appropriate SATA ports on the computer’s motherboard or
SAS/SATA host card.
1.2 DRIVE INSTALLATION
a. Use the handle on the front of the carrier to remove the carrier from the frame.
b. Remove cover from the carrier by turning screw on the top of the carrier cover clockwise.
c. Carefully insert your drive (not included) into the carrier. Turn the drive/carrier assembly
over.
d. Bottom-mount the drive into the carrier with four Phillips screws.
e. Reinstall cover onto the carrier. Secure the cover by turning the screw counterclockwise a
few rotations only (too many rotations will remove the screw).
f. With the carrier handle in a lifted position, slide the drive ports-first into the drive bay. Then
push the handle down so that it’s flush with the frame to seat the frame into place.
g. Rotate the lock switch on the carrier 90 degrees counterclockwise to secure the carrier
into the RJ110 and power on the drive.
