The HDD Does Not Respond

As a system requirement, internal hard disk drives are not started at power up. Problems
may arise if a third-party SCSI controller fails to send a Start Unit command during the
SCSI ROM boot. Therefore, SCSI BIOS defaults must be set to start all hard disk drives
during ROM load. This modification is required for all Adaptec RAID controllers. To
configure the SCSI BIOS, refer to the RAID controller user guide.

CD-ROM Drive Status Indicator Does Not Light

Are the CD-ROM drive's signal and power cables connected correctly?
Are all relevant switches and jumpers on the CD-ROM drive set correctly?
