mSATA
The default storage for the DuraCOR 310 base system is an mSATA card. Typically, this will be installed
at the factory. All drives loaded are rated to the same or greater environmental specifications as the
system. See Figure 5.
2.5” SSD Expansion
With the addition of a separate ring or housing, the DuraCOR 310 has the ability to incorporate a 2.5”
SSD. The capacities will be limited to what is available in the industrial market. If an mSATA storage
device is loaded in the system, when a 2.5” SSD is attached the system will automatically select the 2.5”
drive as the storage device. The removable SATA drive is hot swappable, therefore, there is no need to
turn system off prior to installing or removing the drive. Hot swappable activation or deactivation can be
selected in BIOS, see BIOS Settings below.
Installing the Device
Below are the basic steps to install a 2.5” SATA drive in the system.
Ensure the SATA drive is securely attach to the SSD tray using 4x M3 flat head screws and a
thread locker (i.e. Loctite 222).
Remove the door and place the drive and tray assembly on the door.
Slide the assembly into the system with the words and symbols toward the top of the unit. The
removable storage device can only be inserted in to the system in one direction.
Tighten the thumb screws. Ensure both thumb screws are tight; otherwise the system may not be
watertight.
Removing the Device
Loosen the thumb screws completely.
Pull on the door to disconnect and remove the drive.
Remove the drive tray from the door. Replace the door on the system to maintain environmental
seal.
If desired, remove the drive from the tray. Take care not to lose the screws.
