Section 2: SCSI (Super) GEM Driver Installation
Instructions for Windows OS
Please refer to the following instructions to install the SCSI
GEM Driver for the Windows OS systems.
(*Note: This driver is not necessary for other Operating Systems. If you
have two SCA backplanes, you will need to install the driver twice.)
The driver is located on the Super Micro motherboard driver CD or is available
for download from our FTP site: ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/driver/Qlogic/
Follow the procedure below to install this driver to your system.
Installing the driver:
1) Right click on “My Computer” and choose “Property”.
2) Select “Hardware” tab and click on “Device Manager”.
3) Open “Other Devices” or wherever “GEM318” is on.
4) Right click on this device and choose “Property”.
5) Click on “Driver” tab and choose “Update Driver”.
6) Click “Next” 2 times, uncheck both “Floppy disk drives” and “CD-ROM
drives”. Then, select the item- “Specify a location,” and choose “Next”.
7) Click on “Browse” and choose D drive or wherever Supermicro Setup CD
is in.
8) Choose “Qlogic” folder and click on “Open”.
9) System will automatically detect GEM318 and install the drive from this
point on.
or,
1) Right click the "My Computer" icon on your desktop and choose Properties.
2) Click on the Hardware tab and click on "Device Manager" to bring up the
list of system devices.
3) You may see one or two yellow question marks (?) that read QLogic
GEM354 or GEM318 SCSI Processor Device. Right click on these, and
choose to uninstall. If two such question marks are present, uninstall both.
4) Click on Action tab and choose "Scan for Hardware Changes". The
Hardware Wizard program should start up. Click "Next".
5) At the first prompt, choose “Display a list of known device drivers for the
device so that I can choose a specific driver” and click "Next".
6) Choose “Other Devices” and click Next.

SC813M Chassis
Adding a Floppy Drive
1-1 Overview
The SC813M series of chassis includes the SC813MS-420C, the SC813MT-420C,
the SC813MS-300C and the SC813MT-300C. These chassis come equipped with
a front side USB/COM port tray as part of the standard configuration. Supermicro
has designed the SC813M series so that the USB/COM port tray can be replaced
with a slim floppy drive. This addendum describes the process involved to remove
the front side USB/COM port tray and replace it with a slim floppy drive.
Floppy Kit
Before installing a slim floppy drive, you must obtain a floppy kit from your
Supermicro representative and a slim floppy drive (not included in the kit). The
items included in the floppy kit are listed below and shown in Figure 1.
The floppy kit contains:
One (1) floppy drive adapter
Two (2) floppy drive rails
One (1) floppy drive ribbon cable (to motherboard)
One (1) small ribbon cable (to adapter)
One (1) power cable
Five (5) screws (one large, four small)

Adding a Floppy Drive
1-2 Installation Procedure
Following the steps in the order given will eliminate the most common problems
associated with this install. Before beginning, you should power down the system
and remove the power cord.
Removing the Front Panel USB/COM Port Tray
1. With the power removed from the system, first remove the top chassis cover
(refer to the system manual for help).
2. A COM2 and one or two USB cables run from the tray to the motherboard.
Detach these cables from the motherboard.
3. Find the release tab at the rear left of the USB/COM port tray. Push this tab
in to unlock the tray, then push the tray out through the front of the chassis, along
with the cables you just detached from the motherboard and which are still at
tached to the ports at the front of the tray.
Assembling the Floppy Kit
Check that all the items shown on the previous page have been included in your
floppy kit.
-
1. Attach the two rails to the sides of the floppy drive with the four small screws.
2. Connect the small ribbon cable included in the kit to the appropriate connector
on the floppy drive.
3. Use the large screw to attach the adapter to the back of the floppy drive so
that the connected ribbon cable lines up with the CN1 connector on the adapter.
Attach the other end of the small ribbon cable to the CN1 connector on the floppy
drive adapter.
1-3
SC813M Addendum
Installing the Assembled Floppy into the Chassis
You are now ready to install the assembled floppy drive into the chassis
1. Insert the assembled floppy drive into the open space where the front panel
tray used to be. Push it in until it locks into place.
2. Attach the white header on the floppy power cable to the drive and the black
header to the floppy adapter (see Figure 1-2).
3. Connect the large (34 -wire standard) floppy ribbon to the floppy adapter and
route it through the chassis to connect it to the floppy connector on the mother
board. Make sure you route this cable in such a way that it does not block airflow
or touch other components and is not close to any fans.
4. Replace the top chassis cover and plug in the power cord.
5. Power up the system. Press the <Del> key on system boot to access the BIOS
Setup utilit y. In the appropriate section (usually the Main BIOS Setup) set the type
of floppy installed in the "Floppy Drive" or "Legacy Diskette A" setting.
-
6. Exit and save changes from BIOS and allow the computer to boot up com
pletely.
7. Insert a floppy diskette into the floppy drive and try to access it to verify it has
been correctly installed.
