4.2Configuring the drive

Each drive on the Serial ATA interface connects point-to-point with the Serial ATA host adapter. There is no master/slave relationship because each drive is considered a master in a point-to-point relationship. If two drives are attached on one Serial ATA host adapter, the host operating system views the two devices as if they were both “masters” on two separate ports. Both drives behave as if they are Device 0 (master) devices.

4.3Serial ATA cables and connectors

The Serial ATA interface cable consists of four conductors in two differential pairs, plus three ground connec- tions. The cable size may be 30 to 26 AWG with a maximum length of one meter (39.37 in). See Table 5 for connector pin definitions. Either end of the SATA signal cable can be attached to the drive or host.

For direct backplane connection, the drive connectors are inserted directly into the host receptacle. The drive and the host receptacle incorporate features that enable the direct connection to be hot pluggable and blind mateable.

For installations which require cables, you can connect the drive as illustrated in Figure 4.

Each cable is keyed to ensure correct orientation. Constellation ES.2 Serial ATA drives support latching SATA connectors.

4.4Drive mounting

You can mount the drive in any orientation using four screws in the side-mounting holes or four screws in the bottom- mounting holes. See Figure 5 for drive mounting dimensions. Follow these important mounting precautions when mounting the drive:

•Allow a minimum clearance of 0.030 in (0.76mm) around the entire perimeter of the drive for cooling.

•Use only 6-32 UNC mounting screws.

•The screws should be inserted no more than 0.150 in (3.81mm) into the bottom or side mounting holes.

•Do not overtighten the mounting screws (maximum torque: 6 in-lb).

•Do not cover breather hole on top cover.
