Barracuda 50 Installation Guide, Rev. A
General description
Barracuda 50 SCSI disc drives are high-speed, random-access
digital-data storage devices capable of operating in single-ended
(SE) or low voltage differential (LVD) modes.
This multimode capability allows you to use this drive in systems
that use the traditional SE technology or in LVD-capable sys-
tems.

This drive should be mounted in an enclosure designed for the
drive. This is often within the host system case or an external
enclosure designed to house one or more disc drives or other
devices. In either case, the disc drive must receive adequate
cooling (refer to "Providing adequate cooling") and it must be
sufficiently grounded and shielded from emissions. The Barra-
cuda 50 Product Manual (part number 83329471) contains
guidelines for a properly designed enclosure.
