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.

Installing the Drive into the Carrier

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).
