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 individual 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. This is done by
installing or removing user configuration jumpers found on
the drive PCB.
• Mechanical installation: After setting up the drive configu-
ration the drive must be mechanically installed 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.
