Mounting drives in the Master Caddy
This is simplicity itself. Just insert the disk into the caddy, and secure
with four screws. The caddy is light and the disk just needs to be held
securely. Don’t over-tighten the screws. There are no connections to
make because pushing the caddy into the Samurai or the Docking
station makes all the connections for you.
The Master Caddy can’t be inserted the wrong way round. Always make
sure that the disk connector faces the slot in the Samurai. You have to
be quite firm to push the Master Caddy into place, but don’t push too
hard, just in case something isn’t set up or aligned properly. There is very
little that can cause problems and the most likely thing is that the Master
Caddy isn’t properly flush with the drive inside. A quick visual check will
confirm this.
Spinning disks and SSDs are very sensitive to damage from static
electricity. Please observe all the usual precautions when handling them,
especially DO NOT EVER touch the exposed SATA connector as
static electricity may be harmful to your disk.
