INSTALLATION
Installing the Drive into the Carrier
Preparation
NOTE:
A #2 Phillips screwdriver will be required during this procedure.
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.
1.
Remove the drive from its protective packaging.
2.
Plastic Drive Bezel:
If the drive came equipped with a plastic front panel (bezel),
it must be removed before installing the drive into the drive carrier.
3.
Master/Slave Drive Selection:
There are two (2) ways to set the Master/Slave
drive designation for the DE75i-A100 unit. Refer to Method 1 and/or Method 2 in the
following sections for further information.
Master/Slave Drive Selection
Method 1
(Recommended)
-
Using the factory-installed jumper on your IDE drive
In most cases, the drive will be factory-configured as a Master Ultra ATA133 drive using a
jumper plug on the drive itself. No configuration changes are required. For multiple drive
configurations, it is necessary to set the first IDE drive as Master and the second IDE drive
to Slave. This can be done by changing the jumper on the Ultra ATA133 drive itself (refer to
your drive manufacturer documentation).
This method requires no additional configuration of the drive carrier circuit board.
However, the appropriate jumper setting must still be configured on JP6 (ID0 & ID1) located
on the receiving frame motherboard (Figure 4). For Master setting, install jumper on ID0 (Pins
1 & 2). For slave setting, install jumper on ID1 (Pins 3 & 4).
Skip the Method 2 section and continue with section "
Installing the Receiving Frame
".
