Introduction 3

General Description

NOTES: Ultra320 DE110 receiving frames are indicated by their AMBER LED, while the

Ultra320 DE110 carriers are indicated by the Ultra320 logo.
For SCSI Ultra320 operation, the Ultra320 DE110 requires Ultra320 drives,

Ultra320 HBA, and Ultra320-compliant cabling (internal and external).

The StorCase Technology Data Express® Ultra320 DE110 is a removable drive carrier and
receiving frame, designed to provide durable and reliable mounting for one (1) low-profile (up
to 1" high) 3.5" Ultra320 drive within a 5.25" half-height peripheral slot (Figure 2).

A field-replaceable fan in the front of the drive carrier provides enhanced heat dissipation (3.5
CFM). Refer to Appendix C for further information.

The Ultra320 DE110 allows a drive to be removed and transported to another Ultra320 DE110­equipped computer or expansion chassis, and also provides the ability to secure sensitive data
by removing and storing the drive safely for future use.

(Figures 3A & 3B)

• Unit ID Number Indicator - This AMBER LED displays the status of the Ultra320 DE110
device carrier if the carrier is Installed and Locked in the receiving frame or if the carrier
is removed from the receiving frame. If the carrier is Installed but not Locked in the
receiving frame, a "u" will be displayed to indicate an unlocked condition. The unit ID
number is selected by means of the unit ID select switch inside the receiving frame using
a special alignment tool supplied with the Ultra320 DE110 (Figure 9).

• The Activity Indicator - A small AMBER dot next to the unit ID number illuminates to
indicate when the host computer is accessing the data on the Ultra320 DE110 carrier.
This dot will flash during communication with the host computer.

Fan Failure LED - The unit ID number indicator will display a flashing "F" and an
audible alarm will sound to indicate a fan failure.

NOTES: Ultra320 DE110 receiving frames are indicated by their AMBER LED, while the

Ultra320 DE110 carriers are indicated by the Ultra320 logo.
For SCSI Ultra320 operation, the Ultra320 DE110 requires Ultra320 drives,

Ultra320 HBA, and Ultra320-compliant cabling (internal and external).

Preparation

NOTE: A #2 Phillips screwdriver will be required during this procedure.

While performing the steps in this section, work on a soft surface to prevent excessive shock
to the drive being installed. Also refer to the manufacturer's documentation provided with the

drive.

1. Remove the drive from its protective packaging.

Installing the Drive into the Carrier

1. Carefully insert the drive into the carrier. Slide the drive towards the Drive Carrier
Board, so that the I/O, DC power, and ID select connectors on the drive mate with
their respective connectors on the drive carrier board (Figure 6).

2. Fasten the drive into place with four (4) #6-32 Phillips Flat Hd. screws (Figure 6).

3. Install the provided drive cover (Figure 7).

Installing the Receiving Frame

NOTE: Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver for this procedure.

The drive should be installed into the carrier before installing the receiving frame into the
mounting bay of a computer or expansion chassis.

1. Turn OFF power to the computer.

2. Open the computer system according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If
necessary, temporarily remove any expansion boards that may make installation
difficult.

3. With the drive carrier locked in place inside the receiving frame, install the Ultra320
DE110 into the 5.25” drive opening in the computer or expansion chassis. Use the
appropriate guides to position the Data Express, and fasten it into place with the four
(4) #6-32 Phillips screws provided. Figure 8A illustrates the location of the mounting
holes. Mounting holes are provided on each side and the bottom of the receiving
frame to accommodate a variety of mounting configurations. Use the mounting holes
which best suit the computer or expansion chassis configuration. Note that bottom
mounting holes require self-tapping screws (not provided).

4. Adjust the front of the receiving frame so the carrier slides freely in and out on the
receiving frame guides. The position of adjoining peripheral units may require
adjustment.

5. Connect the I/O cable from the host adapter to the receiving frame. The Pin 1 indicator
on the cable must be properly aligned.

6. Connect the power cable from the DC power supply in the computer or expansion
chassis to the power connector on the Ultra320 DE110 receiving frame. Refer to
Figure 5 for the Ultra320 DE110 receiving frame power connector location.

7. Replace any expansion boards that may have been removed earlier. Replace the
system cover according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Ultra320 DE110 User's Guide - Rev. A03 StorCase Technology, Inc.

12 Installation

8. Reconnect any system or peripheral cables removed earlier.

9. Turn ON power to the computer. If the installation has been successful, and all the
cables have been properly attached, the system should boot normally. Although the
computer may not recognize the Ultra320 DE110 yet, the front panel display on the
Ultra320 DE110 receiving frame should illuminate.

10. The new drive may need to be formatted or initialized prior to use with the operating
system and applications software. Refer to the drive and/or computer manufacturer's
documentation for formatting information.

Selecting the Unit ID Number

1. Verify that power is turned ON to the Ultra320 DE110 receiving frame by turning on
your computer. A number will appear in the unit ID display window if the carrier is
locked in place.

2. Unlock the Ultra320 DE110 drive carrier and remove it from the receiving frame. A
"u" will be displayed initially when the unit is unlocked but will return to a number when
the carrier is removed from the receiving frame.

WARNING: Unlocking the carrier unit switches DC power OFF to the drive. Since

3. Use the alignment tool supplied with the Ultra320 DE110 to select the ID number of
the disk drive. Refer to Figure 9 for the location of the ID Select Switch inside the
receiving frame.

4. After you have selected an appropriate unit ID number, replace the Ultra320 DE110
carrier in the receiving frame, and LOCK IT IN PLACE.

NOTE: The lock on the Ultra320 DE110 carrier functions as a lock and a DC

5. Reboot the computer. The new disk is now ready for use, although it may have to
be formatted or initialized prior to use with your operating system and applications
software.
