INSTALLATION
NOTES: Existing Parallel ATA DE110 carriers and new Serial ATA DE110 carriers will
both work in Serial ATA universal" receiving frames. Universal" receiving
frames are indicated by their BLUE LED. Existing DE110 carriers are indicated
by a Data Express Logo, while the new Serial ATA DE110 carriers are indicated
by the Serial ATA logo.
SATA DE110 carriers will only work in SATA DE110 "universal" receiving
frames (indicated by their BLUE LED). Existing PATA DE110 receiving frames
are indicated by their GREEN LED.
For SATA (1.5Gbps) operation, a SATA controller and appropriate SATA cable
are required.
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 bezel, it must
be removed before installing the drive into the drive carrier.
InstallingtheDriveintotheCarrier
1. Carefully insert the drive into the carrier. Slide the drive towards the Drive Carrier
Board, so that the I/O connector on the drive mates with the connector on the Drive
Carrier Board (Figure 6). Turn the drive/carrier assembly over.
2. Fasten the drive into place with four (4) #6-32 Phillips Flat Hd. screws (Figure 6).
Some drives may require minor adjustment before securing into carrier with screws.
If drive supports the Activity Indicator feature, connect one end of the Activity
Indicator Cable (provided) to the drive and the other end to JP1 located on Drive
Carrier Board (Figures 4 & 6).
