NTERNAL
The mounting s rews are provided with your drive to be used in the
installation. This drive is designed to mount in a 3½-in h drive bay. If a
spare 3½-in h drive bay is not available, you will need to mount the drive
into a 5¼-in h bay.
Become familiar with your ORB drive:
1.5 INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
Be sure to read the following Installation Safety Instru tions before pro eeding
on to the a tual installation steps. Damage ould o ur to your drive and
disk if these pre autions are not followed. If for any reason you do not
understand these instru tions, please onta t a qualified omputer te hni ian
to install or assist in the installation.
Temperature Stabilization - Before removing the drive from its prote tive
plasti bag, ensure the drive has rea hed room temperature. This is
a omplished by allowing the drive to sit in its prote tive plasti bag in
the room environment for at least one hour.
ESD - This drive and its ele troni omponents are sensitive to Ele tro
Stati Dis harge (ESD). On e the drive has been removed from its ESD
prote tive plasti bag, handle it only by its sides. Do not tou h the Printed
Cir uit Board. To prevent ESD problems, tou h the metal hassis of the
omputer before handling the omputers hard drive and periodi ally
throughout the installation. If you are working in a old and/or dry limate,
use an ele trostati dis harge wristband. Your lothing generates stati
ele tri ity as well. Do not allow your lothes to ome into dire t onta t
with the parts of the ir uit board or the hard drive.

1.6 HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Locate an unused drive bay
You should see one or more plasti or metal plates on the fa e of your
omputer near the floppy, CD-ROM or DVD drives. These are the unused
drive bays. The ORB drive mounts in a 3½- in h drive bay. If you only have
a 5¼-in h drive bay, follow steps 1 and 2 below.
Mounting the Drive Into a 5¼-inch Adapter
Note: The remainder of this se tion provides instru tions for mounting your
ORB drive into a 5¼-in h bay adapter.
1. Slide the drive into the adapter.
If installing the ORB drive into a 5¼-in h bay with an adapter be sure
to use the s rews provided with your adapter. The ma hine s rews are
used to mount the drive in the adapter bra ket.
CAUTION: Be careful doing this to avoid damage to the drive.
2. Line the holes of the drive up with the holes of the adapter and
insert two screws into each side or the bottom of the drive.
CAUTION: Mounting screw lengths have been chosen so
that no more than -inch of the screw enters the frame
mounting hole of the drive. The torque applied to the mounting
screws should be between 4 and 6 inch-pounds.

INSTALLATION GUIDE
Now you have located the empty drive bay and mounted your drive
into an adapter, if necessary. You are ready to install the drive into the
computer.
1.
Shut down your operating system and power off your computer.
Unplug the AC power.
2. Remove your computer cover.
Refer to your omputer manual for the pro edure to remove the outer
over of the omputer.
CAUTION: Make sure you keep track of all screws and
fasteners during this process.
. Prepare the bay for installation.
Make sure the bay is free from any extra s rews or plates. Refer to your
omputer Users Manual for more details on this step.
4. The tapping screws are used to secure the adapter bracket containing
the ORB drive in the computer bay.
1.7 CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
Your ORB drive is onfigured as a slave devi e when shipped. Please see
your omputer Users Manual for details on the settings used by your system
and what sele tions to use. There are a few ommon s enarios listed below.
One of these might mat h your omputers system setup. Look into your
omputer and identify where the various onne tors (there are three
onne tors on ea h able) of the EIDE/IDE interfa e able(s) are atta hed.
Then refer to the s enario illustrations and des riptions for a mat h. If you
do find a mat h, then make note of the possibilities for jumper settings and
able atta hments that are offered. You will need this information to install
your ORB drive.

Hard Drive ( ), CD-ROM/DVD Drive (4)
CAUTION: When installing your ORB drive, you should never
place it as a slave device to a CD-ROM, DVD or ATAPI master
device; these configurations will limit or reduce the data rate
potential of your ORB drive. It should only be installed as a
slave device to other hard drives or as a master device to
achieve maximum throughput.
Here your existing hard drive is installed as the master on the primary
hannel and the CD-ROM or DVD is installed as the slave on the primary
hannel. There is an open se ondary hannel. If there is not a able in this
port, you will need to install one yourself. We re ommend installing the ORB
drive as the master on the se ondary hannel (labeled (2) on Figure 6).
In this s enario, your hard drive is installed as the master drive on the
primary hannel. We re ommend installing the ORB drive as the master on
the se ondary hannel (labeled (2) on Figure 6).
Here the hard drive is the master devi e on the primary hannel and the
CD-ROM/DVD is the master on the se ondary hannel. We re ommend
installing the ORB drive as the master on the se ondary hannel (labeled
(2) on Figure 6). You need to onfigure the CD-ROM/DVD as a slave
devi e and install it as the slave on the primary hannel.

INSTALLATION GUIDE
In this s enario, the hard drive is the master on the primary hannel and
other EIDE devi es o upy all the other possible EIDE able onne tions.
You an remove one of the EIDE devi es from one of the EIDE able
onne tions and repla e it with your ORB drive.
To onfigure the ORB drive as the master on the se ondary hannel, remove
one EIDE devi e and onfigure jumper settings of the remaining devi es if
ne essary.
If you are installing and add-on EIDE ontroller ard, it is re ommended to
install the ORB drive as the master on built-in se ondary hannel.
Jumper Placement
Jumper pins are lo ated at the rear of the drive as the group of 10 pins in
5 verti al sets of two. A jumper blo k is provided to onfigure the drive for
the options master, slave and CSEL ( able sele t).
If your installation requires the ORB to be onfigured as a master drive, you
must move the jumper from the slave position to the master position. As
shown in the illustration, the jumper plug should be inserted verti ally.
CSEL ( able sele t) is only used in a very few spe ial situations. Please
see the manual that ame with your omputer for information on CSEL.
CAUTION: Do not install jumpers in
any other position. Only one jumper
will be used.

1.8 MOUNTING THE ORB DRIVE
1. Slide the drive into the open drive bay.
Do not put the hassis mounting s rews in yet.
CAUTION: Do not mount the ORB drive upside down. The
only valid mounting positions are: Circuit card (PCBA) facing
down, to the left, or to the right.
Note:
From the inside of the omputer, he k to see if the EIDE/IDE able you
will be using rea hes the rear of the ORB drive. If it does not rea h, then
you need to get a longer interfa e able. Its best to onne t the ables after
the mounting s rews are in pla e.
2. Match the holes of the drive with the holes in the drive bay enclosure
and insert the screws.
Using the s rews provided with the ORB drive,
put two tapping s rews into ea h side of the drive.
If there are no holes in the sides of the
en losure, you will have to mount the
drive from the bottom.
CAUTION: If installing the ORB drive into a ½-inch bay use
only the tapping screws provided with your drive for installation
of your drive. If installing the ORB drive into a 5¼-inch bay
with an adapter be sure to use the machine screws provided
with your adapter. Mounting screw lengths must be chosen
so that no more than -inch of the screw enters the frame-
mounting hole of the drive. Do not overtighten the screws.
