3. Mount RTX100H-INT into your computer. In an open 5 ¼” bay in your computer, install the
RTX100H-INT just as you would a CD/DVD ROM.
4. Plug in the data cable. The RTX100H-INT connects to your
computer through SATA. One end of the cable connects to the back of the unit. Insert the other end into an available port on your computer’s motherboard or add-in card.
5. Plug in the power. Take an unused 4-wire Molex power
connector from inside your computer and attach that to the adapter cable that is included in the packaging. There is a 4-wire power cable coming off of the adapter cable that plugs into the bridge board (circled in red) on the back of the unit. This bridge board is what powers the LEDs.

6. You are now ready to insert SATA drives using TrayFree™ technology. Simply open the bay
door, slip in a SATA drive, and shut the door. For extra security, use the key lock to lock the door in place. Be sure to unlock the door before pulling on the ejection handle.
If your drive is already formatted, you can begin using it right away. New hard drives will need to be formatted before they can be used.
Usage with Windows computers
Compatibility
The RTX100H-INT Internal is fully plug-and-play with Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003, and Vista. No additional drivers are needed. However, the SATA host you are plugging into will probably require driver or firmware installation.
Formatting Volumes
Before you can use your RTX100H-INT, you must first format the drives into a volume. Use Disk Management, which you can find by right-clicking on My Computer then selecting Manage. Select NTFS for the format type. If you wish to format FAT-32 for cross-platform compatibility, you will need to use a third-party utility to do so. Windows XP will not create FAT-32 volumes larger than 32GB.
After the volume is formatted, an icon representing the drive volume will appear in My Computer. You can now use the volume just like an internal hard drive.
Ejecting Volumes
Always make sure the drive is not being accessed before removing it. If the unit is turned off in the middle of a data input/output process, data loss may result.
