Introduction 3 General Description The StorCase Technology Data Express® DE75i-SWC160 is composed of a receiving frame which supports SCSI Wide Ultra160 interfaces and fits within a 5.25" half-height peripheral slot. This 16-bit I/O can support up to 160MByte/sec transfer rates. The receiving frame contains one (1) removable drive carrier designed to provide durable and reliable mounting for one (1) 3.5" form factor, low-profile (up to 1" high) 80-pin Single-Connect Attachment (SCA) SCSI drive (Figure 2).
4 Introduction Receiving Frame Front Panel (Figure 3) The Key Lock/Drive Power Switch performs three (3) functions. The key lock assures proper seating of the device carrier within the receiving frame, turns power to the device carrier on and off, and prevents unauthorized removal or installation of the carrier. For the computer to access data on the DE75i-SWC160 disk drive, the key must be turned counterclockwise to the locked position.
Introduction 5 Figure 4: Receiving Frame Unit ID Number and Activity Display Receiving Frame Rear Panel (Figure 5) DC Power Connector (J1): The Data Express uses a standard 4-pin DC power connector to accept DC power. I/O Connector (J3): The input/output connector provides a standard interface for 16-bit SCSI Wide Ultra160 signals. Option Pins Remote Unit ID Selection: Pins 1-8 of this connector are provided for remote unit SCSI ID selection through the computer system.
