2. Getting Started (Fast Start)
Connecting Drives to the Logicube OmniWIPE
The Logicube OmniWIPE is able to detect whether
Parallel ATA (IDE or PATA) or Serial ATA (SATA)
drives are attached to any of the drive positions. The
unit is capable of wiping both IDE and SATA drives.
NOTE
: Never attach both a PATA and SATA drive to
a single Master or Target position. It is perfectly fine
to attach a PATA drive to one position (i.e. Master)
and a SATA drive to another position (i.e. Target 1).
Before applying power perform the following steps
below.
Connecting Parallel ATA (PATA/IDE) Drives
1. Locate the Master position on the top of your
OmniWIPE unit. You will notice three
connections: One for a flat cable (the drive data
cable) and another for a small drive power cable.
Above is the third connector for the Serial ATA
cable.
2. Attach the
5” UDMA ribbon cable and the drive
Power cable to the connectors.
3.
Verify the hard drive’s jumper setting is set to
“Single” or “Master” then connect the hard drive to
the cables.
4. Follow steps 1
– 3 to attach drives to the other
drive positions of the OmniWIPE.
5. Connect the AC Power adapter to the back of the
OmniWIPE to power up the unit. In 2-3 seconds
the main screen should appear.
Connecting Serial ATA (SATA) Drives
1. Locate the Master position on the top of your
OmniWIPE unit. You will notice three
connections: One for a flat cable (the drive data
cable) and another for a small drive power cable.
