disk and tape subsystems which may be supplied with either the Modell00U or Model 150U.
This chapter also gives directions on how to add a second Fujitsu M2312K (84-MByte unCormat-
ted), M2284 (169-MByte unformatted), or M2351 (474-MByte unCormatted) drive to an existing
Sun system.
For details on configuring disk/tape controller boards, see the Hardware
Configuration and Ezpan,ion chapter.
3.1. M2312K (Fujitsu 84-MByte) Disk
Your Sun Workstation may be supplied with a disk subsystem which is the Fujitsu Model
M2312K disk drive. The Fujitsu disk drive uses the industry-standard SMD interface which is
supported by either the Interphase SMD 2180 disk controller or the Xylogics 450 SMD disk con-
troller supplied with your disk subsystem.
Note
that iC you are upgrading Crom an Interphase controller to a Xylogics controller, the DIP
switches on the top surface
oC
the disk drive must be re-set. For an Interphase controller, the
proper settings are: on DIP Switch 2, switches 2, 4, 5, and 7 ON; switches 1, 3, and 6 OFF; on
DIP Switch 3, switch 3 ON; all others OFF. For a Xylogics 440 or 450 controller, the proper
settings are: on DIP Switch 2, all switches ON; on DIP Switch 3, switch 3 ON; all others OFF.
Two disk drives may be attached to a single SMD controller. Fujitsu disk drives are shipped in
a box nested inside another box. The package containing the disk drive is wrapped in a plastic
bag. To unpack, mount, and cable up the subsystem, Collow the procedures below.
