The two internal models are a 3.5-inch drive that mounts internal to the computer in
a 3.5-inch, half-height space and a 3.5-inch drive with mounting rails and bezel for
internal installation in a 5.25-inch, half-height space.
Installing these two models consists of a few easy steps:
1. Configure the switchbank parameters and set the jumpers.
2. Mount the drive unit.
3. Complete the power and interface connections.
The installation procedure is the same for both models except physically mounting
the unit in the computer. The following text explains the installation steps for both
models.
You can configure various operational options on the Scorpion 24 by setting the
switches on a switchbank at the base of the drive or by setting jumpers on a jumper
block at the rear of the drive. The directions for setting both switches and jumpers
are given in the following subsections.
Set the switches before you install the drive in the computer. Figure 7 illustrates the
switchbank location for the 3.5-inch internal drive (bottom of the drive is shown).
