Removing an Expansion Board To remove an expansion board, perform the following steps: 1. Remove the left cover of the system unit (see "Removing the Side Covers"). Label and remove any cables connected to the expansion board. Remove the screw that secures the board to the support bracket. Set the screw aside (use it to secure the slot cover after the board is removed). Remove the board from the expansion slot. 4-38 Installing Options Removing an expansion board A ­ Screw B ­ Expansion Board C ­ System Board 5. Replace the slot cover and slot cover screw. Replace the left cover of the system unit (see "Replacing the Side Covers"). Data Storage Devices The system board in the computer supports the following storage devices: T two diskette drives T up to four IDE drives, such as IDE hard drives, an IDE CD-ROM drive, or an IDE Zip drive (depending on available slots) T up to seven SCSI devices, such as a SCSI hard drive or a SCSI Jaz drive (depending on available slots). Installing Options 4-39 Other storage devices might require the installation of a compatible controller board. See your hardware dealer about the storage devices available for your system. Locating Device Bays The system has eight bays (see the figure on the following page): T a 3 1/2-inch accessible device bay that contains the standard 1. 44-MB diskette drive T four 1-inch high thin-height, or three 1. 6-inch high 3 1/2-inch internal hard drive bays T three 5 1/4-inch accessible device bays One accessible device bay contains a CD-ROM drive. One or more of the following devices might be installed in the other 5 1/4-inch bays: T T T T tape drive PC card host Jaz drive Zip drive The accessible bays are not limited to devices with removable media. For example, you can install a hard drive with a 5 1/4-inch frame in one of these bays. A 5 1/4-inch bay can also accommodate a 3 1/2-inch device if the device is housed in a 5 1/4-inch frame. 4-40 Installing Options The following figure shows the device bay locations. Locating device bays A ­ 3 1/2-Inch Internal Bays B ­ 5 1/4-Inch Accessible Bays C ­ 3 1/2-Inch Accessible Bay (contains 1. 44-MB Diskette Drive) Preparing the Device Before installing a storage device in the system, follow any preinstallation instructions that come with the device. For example, check the following information: T Diskette drive -- remove any termination on the diskette drive. See the documentation that comes with the drive. T IDE drive -- check the jumper settings on the device before installing it. See the documentation that comes with the device for jumper setting information. Installing Options 4-41 Each IDE device in the system must be set correctly as the first (master) or second (slave) device on the IDE channel. In systems with an IDE hard drive, the drive is set as the master device on the primary IDE cable. T SCSI drive -- run the Symbios Configuration utility to assign a SCSI ID and terminate the device if necessary. T CD-ROM drive -- in systems with an IDE hard drive, the CD-ROM drive is set as the master device on the secondary IDE cable. In general, set a third or fourth IDE device as the slave device on the primary cable and secondary cable respectively. In systems with an SCSI hard drive, the CD-ROM drive is set as the master device on the primary IDE cable. In general, set a second, third or fourth IDE device as the master device on the secondary cable, the slave device on the primary cable, and slave device on the secondary cable respectively. Use the table "IDE Connector Configuration" when configuring IDE drives on the primary and secondary IDE connectors on the system board. See "Connecting Device Cables" and "Cabling Storage Devices" for more information on connecting devices. 4-42 Installing Options IDE Connector Configuration Configuration 1 device (hard drive) 2 devices (hard drive, CD-ROM) 2 devices (hard drive, tape backup) 2 devices (hard drive, Zip drive) 3 devices (hard drive, CD-ROM, Zip drive) 3 devices (hard drive, CD-ROM, tape backup) 3 devices (hard drive, hard drive, CD-ROM) 3 devices (hard drive, hard drive, tape backup) 3 devices (hard drive, hard drive, Zip drive) 4 devices (hard drive, CD-ROM, Zip drive, tape backup) 4 devices (hard drive, hard drive, CD-ROM, tape backup) 4 devices (hard drive, hard drive, CD-ROM, Zip drive) 4 devices (hard drive, hard drive, Zip drive, tape backup) Primary connector Master - hard drive Slave - none Master - hard drive Slave - none Master - hard drive Slave - none Master - hard drive Slave - none Master - hard drive Slave - none Master - hard drive Slave - none Master - hard drive Slave - hard drive Master - hard drive Slave - hard drive Master - hard drive Slave - hard drive Master - hard drive Slave - Zip drive Master - hard drive Slave - hard drive Master - hard drive Slave - hard drive Master - hard drive Slave - hard drive Secondary connector Master - none Slave - none Master - CD-ROM Slave - none Master - tape backup Slave - none Master - Zip drive Slave - none Master - CD-ROM Slave - Zip drive Master - CD-ROM Slave - tape backup Master - CD-ROM Slave - none Master - tape backup Slave - none Master - Zip drive Slave - none Master - CD-ROM Slave - tape backup Master - CD-ROM Slave - tape backup Master - CD-ROM Slave - Zip drive Master - Zip drive Slave - tape backup Installing Options 4-43 Connecting Device Cables The cables used for installing optional storage devices include: T T T T T diskette drive signal cable IDE signal cables internal SCSI device cables PC adapter card cables system power cables.
