INSTALLATION
Installing the Drive into the Carrier
Preparation
While performing the steps in this section, work on a soft surface to prevent excessive shock
to the drive being installed. Also refer to the manufacturer's documentation provided with the
drive.
NOTE:
A #2 Phillips screwdriver will be required during this procedure.
1.
Remove the drive from its protective packaging.
2.
Plastic Drive Bezel:
If the drive came equipped with a plastic front bezel, it
must be removed.
3.
SCSI Drive Termination:
Disable or remove the termination resistor packs
from the drive. Termination is handled by an external terminator in the DE100
receiving frame. Refer to the documentation provided by the drive manufacturer
for the location of these terminators or jumpers.
4.
SCSI Drive ID Select Jumpers
(DE100i-SW only)
:
Locate the SCSI ID Select
Jumper positions on the disk drive, and remove any jumper plugs in this area.
The SCSI ID cable will be installed into this section of the drive.
5.
SCSI ID Cable
(DE100i-SW only)
:
(Figure 7) The DE100i-SW carrier is supplied
with one (1) 5-wire cable. This cable is used for remote ID selection by means
of the DE100i-SW Unit ID Select Switch inside the receiving frame. The cable
is designed to connect to drives with 2mm ID Select connectors.
The cables are made up of
black
,
brown
,
red
,
orange
,
and
yellow
wires.
The
black
wire is plugged into the pin used to select ID0, the
brown
wire plugs
into the pin for ID1, the
red
wire plugs into the pin for ID2, and the
orange
wire
connects to ID3. Most drive manufacturers mark these pins with some sort of
identification which corresponds to ID0, ID1, ID2, and ID3. The
yellow
wire
plugs into the drive activity LED pin.
Disk drives use a row of pins to provide ground to the ID signals. This row of
pins is not used when installing the ID select cable to the carrier connector.
Refer to the drive manufacturer's documentation for more information.
