3.4HDD Installation
With the cPCI-6760DK/P5, users can install one 2.5” ATA HDD or one flash drive (e.g. FLASH2000 flash disk, FFD). The factory default model is equipped with a DB-6760CF; the removable CF card is not included. If users wish to install a 2.5” ATA HDD for larger storage capacity or want to install a FFD, user can purchase off-the-shelf 2.5” ATA HDD or FFD from the market. However, we recommend only products, which are approved by ADLINK to ensure optimum system stability. Due to space limitation and ventilation concerns, the SBC is only allowed to use low profile (or called slim type) 2.5” ATA HDD or FFD with a thickness of no more than 9.5mm. Since the CF card adaptor (DB-6760CF) utilizes the same IDE interface and the same housing that a 2.5” ATA HDD uses, users should remove the CF card adaptor (if any) first before installing a 2.5” ATA HDD or FFD. Please refer to the section on “CF installation” for the instruction on removing the CF card adaptor.
