Removing A Hard Disk Drive - DEC Personal DECstation 5000 User Manual

9.6 Making Sure Your Workstation Recognizes the Hard Disk Drive
4. Look at the column headed
and SCSI ID for each drive your system recognizes. All the SCSI drives
connected to the SCSI connector on the back of the system unit should be
listed here. The sample shows the internal hard disk, with SCSI ID 2, and
a tape drive, with SCSI ID 5.
5. The column headed
the sample, RZ25 and TZK10. Some device names will not appear in this
column. Use the DEV column to verify the presence of SCSI drives.
6. If the drives you've connected aren't listed in the configuration display or
if they're listed incorrectly, turn off the system unit, remove the cover, and
check to make sure the drives are properly installed.
If you've made sure the drives are properly installed and the configuration
display still does not list them correctly, you may have two or more devices
set to the same SCSI ID. You'll need to change the ID for one of these
drives before your system will work properly. (See Section 9.5.1 or refer to
the guide that came with the drive.)

9.7 Removing a Hard Disk Drive

1. Turn off the workstation by pressing the 0 on the on/off switch on the back
of the system unit.
2. Open the system unit. (See ''Section 1.1.3.1'' on page 1-6.)
3. Stand facing the front of the system unit. The hard disk drive is at the
front of the unit, in the center.
4. Disconnect the SCSI cable from the SCSI connector on the base system
module.
5. Disconnect the power cable from the drive power connector on the base
system module, unless the cable is also providing power to an internal
floppy disk drive.
6. On the right side of the disk assembly, you'll see a sliding latch. Slide the
latch backward to unlock it.
7. Raise the right side of the hard disk assembly off the small post that holds
it.
8. Keep lifting the disk assembly until you can slide the tabs on its left side
out of the slots in the base of the system unit.
