Mount the P2 drive in a 5-inch bay on the
personal computer. Use the screws
supplied with the P2 drive for mounting.
Please refer to your computer's
instruction manual for guidance in
mounting to 5-inch bay drives.
Holes for securing the screws
(the other side is the same.)
<Notes>
The P2 drive may not be able to be
fastened securely in some types of
personal computers.
If all 5-inch bays are occupied, you will
need to remove one of the built-in drives
to make room for the P2 drive.
The P2 drive should be used in a
personal computer whose design allows
the front panel of the Drive to be
manipulated.

Connect the other end of the PCI
EXPRESS cable to the P2 drive PCIe

Start the personal computer and verify that
it recognises the P2 drive.
<Notes>
Use the PCI EXPRESS cable included with
the P2 drive. The unit may not operate
properly if a commercially available cable of 2
metres or longer is used.
Attach the PCI EXPRESS cable so that it is
not in direct contact with the heat sink fan or
fins inside the personal computer.
In Windows XP or Windows Vista, some card
slots of the P2 drive may be assigned drive
names that have already been assigned to
existing networks. Reassign network drive
names if your personal computer does not
display all five card slots.
Since the P2 drive does not support hot-
plugging, do not insert or remove the PCI
EXPRESS cable with the personal computer
power on.
Connect after carefully checking the
configuration of the PCI EXPRESS cable.
Connecting the ends in reverse will damage
internal parts and cause malfunction.
