2. Insert the drive
Slide the carrier or tray into the appropriate bay in your host system. This
connects the drive directly to your system’s 40-pin Fibre Channel single
connector attachment (FC-SCA). The FC-SCA connector is normally
located on a Fibre Channel backpanel.

Handling precautions/Electrostatic discharge protection
3. Connect LEDs (optional)
• Disc drives are fragile. Do not drop or jar the drive. Handle the drive only
by the edges or frame.
Note. This is an optional step. The drive will work fine without the LEDs
connected to the drive.
• Drive electronics are extremely sensitive to static electricity. Keep the
drive in its antistatic container until you are ready to install it. Wear a wrist
strap and cable connected to ground. Discharge static from all items near
or that will contact the drive. Never use an ohmmeter on any circuit
boards.
The drive supplies pins that you can use to connect fault and active LEDs.
This allows you to monitor drive fault conditions and activity. The actual LED
is external to the drive.
• Turn off the power to the host system during installation.
• Always use forced-air ventilation when operating the drive.
• Use caution when troubleshooting a unit that has voltages present.
• Do not disassemble the drive; doing so voids the warranty.
• Return the entire drive for depot service if any part is defective.
• Do not apply pressure or attach labels to the circuit board or to the top of
the drive.

What you need
[1] The drive has a 2.2K ohm resistor in series with this LED driver. Tie the
minus side of an external high-efficiency LED (i.e., 2ma) to this pin.
Connect the plus side of the LED to +5V.
[2] An external current-limiting resistor is required when connecting an
LED to this pin. The minus side of the resistor/LED combination is con-
nected to this pin. Connect the plus side to +5V.
• Screwdriver and four 6-32 UNC drive mounting screws
• Forced-air ventilation to provide adequate drive cooling
• Host system with Fibre Channel host adapter or backplane
Installation instructions
[3] Jumper storage location (across pins 2 and 4).
1. Mount the drive in the host system carrier or tray
Figure 2.
LED indicator connector
Most Fibre Channel host systems (including enclosures) provide a way to
insert the drive using a carrier or tray which allows the drive to be hot-
plugged into the system’s Fibre Channel 40-pin single connector attach-
ment (FC-SCA).
Fault LED Signal
The drive activates the fault LED Out signal when:
• the drive detects failure of both ports
• the drive detects an internal failure
Mount the drive to the carrier or tray provided by the host system using four
6-32 UNC screws. Do not over-tighten or force the screws. You can mount
the drive in any orientation. See Figure 1.
• the drive receives the appropriate fault LED command from the host
Active LED signal
The drive activates the active LED signal as indicated below.
Note. FC drives are designed to be attached to the host system without I/O
or power cables.
