Installing A Drive In The 3.5-Inch Drive Bay - NEC POWERMATE PRO150 Manual

Installing a Drive in the 3.5-inch Drive Bay

1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin."
2. Remove the 3.5-inch drive bay.
3. Remove the 3.5-inch disk drive from its protective wrapper and place it
on an antistatic surface.
4. Set any drive jumpers, switches, or terminating resistors according to
the manufacturer's instructions.
5. Slide the drive into the drive carrier until the screw holes line up.
6. Secure the drive to the bay with four screws of the appropriate type and
length (Figure 4-10).
7. Connect a power cable from the power supply to the drive. If the drive
is an IDE type, connect the data cable between the drive and the one of
the PCI/IDE headers on the system board. If the drive is a non-IDE
type, refer to the drive manufacturer's instructions for connecting a data
cable and interface board and for configuring the drive.
Note
The system board provides two PCI/IDE headers for connecting
IDE hard drives. You can connect up to two IDE drives (on the
supplied cable) to each PCI/IDE header. If one PCI/IDE header
already has two drives connected to it, you can connect additional
IDE drives to the second PCI/IDE header.
8. Replace the 3.5-inch drive bay.
9. If you install a non-IDE drive or a different type of drive, run Setup to
specify the drive type. You do not have to run Setup if are installing an
IDE drive, or if you are replacing a drive with the same size and type of
drive that was already configured in the system.
