Installing SCSI hard disks
Note: Before you install a SCSI hard disk in your system, you need
to install a SCSI controller card. The SCSI controller card shown in
the illustration below is for your reference only. The actual system
may not be bundled with a SCSI adapter card.
For more instructions on how to install a SCSI card to your system,
refer to page 39.
To install two SCSI hard disks:
1 Remove the system cover. See “Removing the system cover” on
page 35 for more information.
2 Configure the jumper settings, SCSI ID and terminators.
Note: Refer to the SCSI hard disk documentation for more
information.
3 Install the SCSI hard disks to your system following the instruction
on page 43.
4 Locate the SCSI controller card on the mainboard.
5 Remove the fan blower. See page 39 step 2 for more information.
Note: If you want to connect more than one SCSI hard disks in a
daisy-chain fashion, you may need a SCSI terminator. SCSI
terminators are usually installed at the end of the SCSI cables to
let fast signals be passed without distortion.
6 Plug one end of the SCSI cable to the SCSI controller card
connector (1).
Route the cable along the side of the mainboard and air baffle.
Connect the second SCSI cable to the first SCSI hard disk connector
(2).
Connect the last SCSI cable to the SCSI hard disk connector (3) then
attach a terminator to the end of the SCSI cable (4).
