4 Attach the other end to the bottom connector
on the Wide drive in the drive stack. Secure the
cable by using the thumbscrews that are part of
the cable connector.
5 Repeat steps 2 through 4 until you have all the
wide drives connected.
6 Locate a SCSI cable with 68-pin connectors on
both ends in the drive kit.
7 Attach one end of the cable to the remaining
connector on the last (top) wide drive in the
drive stack (see Figure 12). Secure the cable by
using the thumbscrews that are part of the cable
connector.
8 Locate an ultra, wide-to-narrow SCSI adapter.
The adapter has a 68-pin female connector on
one end and a 50-pin Centronics
®
connector on
the other end.
9 Attach the wide-to-narrow SCSI adapter to the
first (bottom) narrow drive (see Figure 13). Se-
cure the adapter by using the bail-latches that
are part of the narrow drive.
10 If you have more than one narrow drive, lo-
cate the SCSI cable with 50-pin Centronics con-
nectors on both ends.
11 Attach one end of the 50-pin cable to the top
connector on the first narrow drive (see
Figure 14). Secure the cable by using the bail-
latches that are part of the narrow drive.
12 Attach the other end of the narrow SCSI ca-
ble to the bottom connector on the next narrow
drive. Secure the cable by using the bail-latches
that are part of the narrow drive.
13 Repeat steps 10 through 12 until you have
connected all the drives.
14 Locate the ultra, narrow 50-pin SCSI termi-
nator.
15 Attach the SCSI terminator to the top con-
nector on the top narrow drive in the drive stack
(see Figure 15). Secure the terminator by using
the bail-latches that are part of the DigiDrive.
16 Attach an ac power cord to the ac power con-
nector on the back of each drive.
17 Plug the ac power cords into a power strip.
