Installation guide

Installation Overview
Installation of the drive can be divided into distinct
phases. Some of these may not be applicable to all
system installation requirements. Refer to the indi-
vidual drive installation sections for specific information
on your drive model.
• Drive configuration: Select those drive features
that are appropriate to install the drive in the system.
In "W/WD" models this is done by installing or remov-
ing user configuration jumpers found on the drive
PCB. For "WC/DC" models, some of the configura-
tion parameters can be set over the 80 pin interface.
• Mechanical installation: After setting up the drive
configuration the drive must be mechanically in-
stalled into the host system and the power and I/O
cables attached. Previously mentioned precautions
should be observed.
• CMOS configuration: SCSI drives should not be
defined in the CMOS. The SCSI host adapter uses its
own BIOS to handle the Input/Output procedures.
The CMOS setting for SCSI drive is either drive type
zero, or the no drive installed option.
