14 INSTALLING SCSI DRIVES
14.1 V1 and removable SCSI drives
• The V1 is factory set to SCSI ID 7.
• The internal SCSI cable on the V1 is 68-pin. To be able to mount 50-pin devices you need to
order the SCSI68-50 adapter
• If you have a SCSI connector on the back of your unit, you must place the provided terminator it.
If you connect an external SCSI box to it, the external box must be properly terminated.
• If you don’t have a SCSI connector on the back it means that the unit was shipped to you with an
internal terminator. If you want to have the external connector, please contact tech support.
• To avoid conflicts, Don't use this ID 7 for any drive to be installed.
Since drives recorded on DCT units cannot be played on MPEG2 or Uncompressed units, we
made a distinction as to which Data Express mechanism should be used with each of our
products
The V1 uses Ultra Wide LVD SCSI at 80 MB/s. The SCSI connector on the back of the unit
should always be terminated.
1. For DCT products, we recommend for the V1, V1d and V1m using the DE100i-SW/B. For
the V1x2 use the DE300i-SWC160/B. Use only an LVD SCSI terminator.
2. For MPEG2 products, we recommend using the DE100i-SWC160/B. Since the SWC
mechanism is different than the SW, this will ensure that only MPEG2 disks are used with
V1 MPEG2 units, and will avoid confusion with V1 DCT disks. Use only an LVD SCSI
terminator.
3. For SD uncompressed products (V1-U), the storage will be provided by Doremi or by an
authorized dealer with one DE300i-SWC160/B. Use only an LVD SCSI terminator.
4. For HD uncompressed products (V1-UHD), the storage will be provided by Doremi or by an
authorized dealer. Use the provided terminator (SE/LVD/160)
14.2 Important Note about using Jaz Drives
DOREMI LABS DOES NOT RECOMMEND THE USE OF THE JAZ DRIVE WITH THE V1.
DOREMI LABS, INC. RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE PROVIDING SUPPORT TO
CUSTOMER WITH A JAZ DRIVE INSTALLED ON THEIR UNITS.
