(3½ and 5¼ - inch bays)
CAUTION: Do not mount the ORB drive upside down. The
only valid mounting positions are: Circuit card (PCBA) facing
down, to the left, or to the right.
Note:
From the inside of the computer, check to see if the EIDE/IDE cable you
will be using reaches the rear of the ORB drive. If it does not reach, then
you need to get a longer interface cable. It’s best to connect the cables after
the mounting screws are in place.
2. Match the holes of the drive with the holes in the drive bay enclosure
and insert the screws.
Using the screws provided with the ORB drive,
put two tapping screws into each side of the drive.
If there are no holes in the sides of the
enclosure, you will have to mount the
drive from the bottom.
CAUTION: If installing the ORB drive into a 3½-inch bay use
only the tapping screws provided with your drive for installation
of your drive. If installing the ORB drive into a 5¼-inch bay
with an adapter be sure to use the machine screws provided
with your adapter. Mounting screw lengths must be chosen
so that no more than
mounting hole of the drive. Do not overtighten the screws.
