3. Mounting disks in the Master Caddy II

Mounting drives in the Master Caddy II

This is simplicity itself. Just insert the disk into the caddy, and secure

with four screws. The caddy is light and the disk just needs to be held

securely. Don’t over-tighten the screws. There are no connections to

make because sliding the caddy into the Shogun or the Docking station

makes all the connections for you.

The Master Caddy can’t be inserted the wrong way round. Always make

sure that the disk connector faces the slot in the Shogun. You have to be

Spinning disks and SSDs are very sensitive to damage from

static electricity. Please observe all the usual precautions

when handling them, especially DO NOT EVER touch the exposed

SATA connector as static electricity may be harmful

to your disk.

Master Caddy II drives are backwards compatible with previous

Atomos recorders, however Master Caddy 1 is not forward

compatible with the shogun due to the compact latch design.

Carefully assemble the

Master Caddy and disk

Ensure all 3 parts aligned

and insert 4 x screws (supplied)

Do not over-tighten screws or

alignment can not be guaranteed.
