Mounting the drive in a 5.25-inch drive bay

If you are mounting the drive in a 5.25-inch drive bay, you must use a drive with

mounting brackets attached. As shown in Figure 10 below, the 5.25-inch drive

brackets have four screw holes on the bottom and six on each side.

Connecting the SCSI interface cable

Scorpion 40 drives can be used with two different types of SCSI interfaces: Ultra2

SCSI (LVD) or “Wide” (16-bit) single-ended SCSI. The drive can automatically detect

whether it is connected to an LVD or single-ended wide SCSI bus.

Note: The Scorpion 40 will not work in a SCSI-1 environment.

Connecting to a 68-pin Wide SCSI or LVD bus

To connect the drive to an LVD or SCSI wide bus, first turn off all power to the drive

and computer. Then attach the interface cable to the SCSI interface connector on the

back of the drive (see Figure 11 on the following page).
