Jumper Setting
--------------
Option Jumper Block(s)
----------------------
DCHS models contain a jumper block that can be used to enable certain
features and select the SCSI ID of the drive. This jumper block is
referred to as the Front Option Jumper Block due it's location on the
drive (opposite the SCSI connector). This jumper block varies in pin
definition based on interface type (50, 68, Differential, SCA). The
Option Block connector (2 x 16) used on 50 pin models is an AMP
connector (P/N 84156-4) having a pin spacing of 2mm.
The Option Block connector (2 x 16) used on the 68 and 80 pin models
is an AMP connector (P/N 84156-5) having a pin spacing of 2mm.
68-pin models also contain a rear option jumper block that replicates
some of the functions contained in the front block.

Option Block Mode Pin
---------------------
The Option Block Mode pin is used to modify the function of the Front
Option Jumper Block. When the Option Block Mode Pin is not grounded
the pin function of the front Option Jumper Block will be as defined
by the upper portion of the referenced figures. When the Option Block
Mode Pin is grounded the pins (25, 27, 29, 31) will be redefined to
control what is referred to as Alternate Mode. Alternate Mode allows
tailoring of SCSI options such as boot up characteristics and other
operational features on a per customer basis.

The 68Pin models contain an Auxiliary connector that replicates some
of the functions contained in the Front Option Jumper Block. The
Auxiliary connector signal definitions conforms to the SCSI document
SFF-8009 Rev. 2 with the following exceptions:
1. EXTERNAL FAULT (XTFALT-) is not supported on pin 2.
2. AUTO SPIN START was chosen as the vendor unique'signal assignment
(on pin 4). (This signal is an input to the drive. The SCSI spec
(SCSI SFF-8009) specifies this pin as an output.) This signal
should be useful for those applications that want to auto-start
the drive based on location dependent SCSI ID.
This pin should be handled in one of the following ways:
a. tied to ground (auto spin start enabled)
b. allowed to float (no connection)
c. drive with an open collector driver (>1mA sink capability)

Auto Start (& Delay) Pins
-------------------------
The Auto Start and Auto Start Delay pins control when and how the
drive can spin up and come ready. When configured for Auto-Startup,
the motor spins up after power is applied without the need of a SCSI
Start Unit command. For no Auto-Start, a SCSI Start Unit command is
required to make the drive spin and be ready for media access
operations. When in Auto-Start mode, the drive will delay it's start
time by a period of time multiplied by it's own SCSI address.

External Activity (LED) Pins ---------------------------- The LED pins can be used to drive an external Light Emitting Diode. Up to 33 mA ( 5%) of TTL level LED drive capability is provided. Current limiting for the LED is provided on the electronic card. The LED Anode may be tied to the +5V source provided on pin 18 of the Front Option Jumper block, pin 11 of the Auxiliary connector on the 68-pin. Unitized connector or the +5V power source provided on the 80-pin SCA model. The LED cathode is then connected to the EXTERNAL ACTIVITY Pin to complete the circuit.
NOTE
This set of pins can be used to drive an LED located in a bezel
connected to the front of the drive or to an external LED in systems
where the front of the drive can not be easily seen.
NOTE
68/80 pin SCSI models have two sets of pins, a set on the front and a
set on the back, that are connected to the same LED driver circuit.
The combined drive capability is stated above.
Write Protect Pins
------------------
If the Write Protect pin is jumpered to ground the drive will
prohibit SCSI commands that alter the customer data area portion of
the media from being performed. The state of this pin is monitored on
a per command basis.
Disable T.I.Sync. Negotiation Pins
----------------------------------
If a Disable Target Initiated Synchronous Negotiation pin is grounded
then an Initiator is required to start a negotiation handshake if
Synchronous and/or Wide (Double Byte) SCSI transfers are desired.
Disable SCSI Parity Pins
------------------------
Grounding this pin will disable SCSI Parity checking.
Disable Unit Attention Pins
---------------------------
Grounding this pin will disable the drive from building Unit
Attention Sense information for commands immediately following a
Power On Reset (POR) or SCSI Bus Reset. Any pending Unit Attention
conditions will also be cleared at POR or SCSI Reset times.
Customizing Pin
---------------
The customizing pin is currently reserved for future use.
Enable Narrow Mode
------------------
Jumpering pin 14 to pin 13 will cause the 68 pin Differential or the
80 pin SCA to operate in a Single Byte mode. The drive will not
negotiate for Wide (Double Byte) operation. The drive will terminate
the unused upper byte and upper byte parity on the SCSI Bus.
Enable Active Termination
-------------------------
Upon request, Single Ended 50 and 68 pin models are available with on
card SCSI bus Active terminators. For those cards having the Active
Termination feature, this function can be enabled by installing a
jumper between pins 13 and 14 of the Front Option Jumper Block or
connecting pins 9 and 11 of the Auxiliary Connector on 68 SCSI pin
models.
SCSI Bus Termination Power
--------------------------
Termination Power is optionally provided for systems that desire to
use it. In order to use the termination power, the user needs to
install a jumper between pins 01 and 02 of the TermPower Block. The
jumper should only be installed on one device, which should be the
last device on the SCSI bus (i.e. the drive that is phydically
closest to a terminator). 68 pin models can source up to 2.0 Amps of
current at 5.0 Volts ( 5%) for termination power. 50 pin models can
source up to 1.5 Amps of current at 5.0 Volts ( 5%) for termination
power.

The drive will operate in all axis (6 directions).
DC Power
--------
The DC power connector is designed to mate with AMP part 1-480424
(using AMP pins P/N 350078-4). Equivalent connectors may be used.
PACKAGING: The drive must be protected against Electro-Static
Discharge especially when being handled. The safest way to avoid
damage is to put the drive in an anti static bag before ESD wrist
straps etc are removed. Drives should only be shipped in approved
containers, severe damage can be caused to the drive if the
packaging does not adequately protect against the shock levels
induced when a box is dropped. Consult your IBM marketing
representative if you do not have an approved shipping container.
50 Pin SCSI Signal Connector
----------------------------
50 pin models use an AMP PN 84160-1 connector. The connector is
compatible with the ANSI SCSI 'A' connector specifications. It is
limited to 8 bit data transfers only.
68 Pin SCSI Signal Connector
----------------------------
68 pin models use an AMP connector (PN 786963-1) that is compatible
with the ANSI SCSI 'P' connector specifications. It can transfer
data in both 8 bit (narrow) and 16 bit (wide) modes. Both
single-ended and differential versions are supported.
The differential 68 pin models are electrically compatible with
differential 50 pin models and other 50 pin differential SCSI
products and therefore can coexist on the same bus. In order to do
so, the differences in connector types would need to be accounted
for in the cable. Connecting 68 and 50 pin single-ended models to
the same bus can also coexist. Differential and single-ended models
do not work connected to the same bus.
80 Pin (Single Connector Attachment) Connector
----------------------------------------------
80 pin SCA-2 models use an AMP connector (PN 5-917593-9) that is
compatible with the specification of: 'Single Connector Attachment
for Small SCSI Disk Drives' SFF 8046. It can transfer data in both 8
bit (Narrow) and 16 bit (wide) modes.
Note: The 'SCA-2' connector is not mechanically compatible with the
50 pin 'A' connector or Hot plug/unplug support the 68 pin 'P'
connector as defined in the ANSI SCSI standard. This connector
is intended for direct backplane attachment and is not intended
to be cable attached to the bus.
SCSI Bus Cable
--------------
Single-ended models permit cable lengths of up to 6 metres (19.68
feet). It should be noted however that users who plan to use "Fast"
data transfers with single-ended models should follow all of the
ANSI SCSI guidelines for single-ended "Fast" operations. This may
include a cable length of less than 6 metres. SCSI 3 Fast 20 models
can be cable connected to a 3 metre (9.8 feet) cable when a maximum
of 4 devices are attached, and a 1.5 metre (4.9 feet) cable with up
to 8 devices attached. SCA-2 connector models are not designed for
direct cable attachment due to the combination of power and SCSI
bus signals. "Fast & Fast 20" data transfers with SCA models
should follow all of the ANSI SCSI guidelines.
Differential models permit cable lengths of up to 25 metres
(82.02 feet). Cables must meet the requirements for differential
cables as set forth in the ANSI SCSI standard under "Cable
Requirements -Differential Cable". The ANSI SCSI standard
states that any stub from main cable must not exceed 0.1 metres for
single-ended cables and 0.2 metres for differential cables.
Ultrastar 2XP has a maximum internal stub length of 0.05 metres on
all 'single-ended' SCSI signals, and 0.1 metres on all 'differential'
SCSI signals. To remain compliant with the standard the SCSI bus
cable must not add more than 0.05 metres additional stub length to
any of the single-ended SCSI signals or 0.1 metres to any
differential SCSI signals.
80 pin SCA models do not have internal SCSI bus terminators.
Differential models do not have internal SCSI bus terminators.
Note: A Meritec model 940900-4 or a DataMate DM5000-5068-11 can be
used to connect a 68 pin connector to a 50 pin connector. The drive
will now perform 8 bit transfers.

------------------
No damage will occur if the unpackaged drive is subjected to a
square wave shock less than 35 Gs applied to all three axis for
a period of 20 milliseconds, one direction at a time.
Additionally, no damage will occur if the unpackaged drive is not
subjected to an 11 millisecond half sine wave shock greater than
70 Gs applied to all three axis, one direction at a time.
General
IBM SCSI INSTALLATION
SCSI Installation Guide Generic
Installation requirements
-------------------------
To install a drive inside your computer or in an external storage
enclosure for SCSI devices, you must have:
1 The documentation that came with your computer or storage enclosure.
2 The documentation that came with your hard drive.
3 A small, flat blade screwdriver.
4 A SCSI controller, which is either built into the system board or on an adapter inside your computer.
5 An installation kit, if it is required for your computer. Contact your place of purchase if you are not sure.
6 If you are installing this into a PS/2 computer, you will also need the up-to-date backup copy of your reference diskette and diagnostic diskette.
WARNING: Do not open the static-protective bag containing the drive
until instructed to do so. Static electricity can damage the drive.
Hardware and software considerations
Operating system
----------------
The operating system and hardware are two of the factors that
determine the number of drives a computer can support. The manuals
for your computer and operating system can help you to determine the
number and type of hard disk drives you can use.
Power supply
------------
Two factors that determine the number of internal drives that a
computer or SCSI storage enclosure can support are:
1 The available current of the power supply
2 The nominal operating current of each drive installed
Most computer power supplies have output over-current protection. If
the total allowed current is exceeded, the power supply shuts down.
The computer must be turned off and turned on again.
SCSI ID Each SCSI device connected to a SCSI adapter must be assigned
a unique SCSI identification number (ID). The ID you assign to this
device depends on the number of SCSI devices connected to the SCSI
adapter and the SCSI IDs already assigned to those devices.
Note: All IBM SCSI controllers support SCSI IDs 6 through 0. (ID 7 is
used for the SCSI controller.) Some SCSI controllers support SCSI IDs
15 through 8. If your SCSI controller supports more than seven
devices, then you can use SCSI IDs 15 through 8. If you are not sure
if your SCSI controller supports more than seven devices, refer to
the documentation that came with your SCSI controller for
information.
If you have an IBM PS/2 computer, you can view your SCSI ID settings
by accessing the system programs. From the main menu, select Set
configuration. The select Set and view SCSI configuration.
Other computers might have utility programs that enable you to view
the SCSI configuration, or you might have to physically inspect the
installed SCSI devices to see how the IDs are set. For more
information, refer to the documentation that came with your computer
or SCSI controller.
Handling precautions
--------------------
1 Turn off all attached devices first; then turn off the computer.
2 Unplug all the power cords from electrical outlets before starting installation.
3 Disconnect all power cables from your computer and attached devices before starting installation.
4 Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.
5 Handle the drive carefully and by the edges.
6 Do not touch any exposed printed circuitry.
7 Prevent other people from touching the components or the drive.
8 When you are installing the drive, touch the static-protective package containing the drive to a metal expansion-slot screw or other unpainted metal surface on the computer, for at least 2 seconds. (This drains static electricity from the package and your body.)
9 When possible, remove the drive and install it directly into the computer without setting it down. If this is not possible, place the drive, component side up, on the static-protective bag on a flat surface until the drive is installed.
10 Do not place the drive on the computer cover or on a metal table.
Installing the drive
--------------------
These instructions guide you as you install the drive inside your
computer or storage enclosure.
Step 1. Setting the jumpers and terminators
Note: Be sure you have chosen the SCSI ID before continuing. If you
did not yet choose the SCSI ID, go to "SCSI IDs" above, then
return here. Follow these steps to set the SCSI ID to match
your chosen SCSI ID.
1 Touch the static-protective bag containing the drive to a metal expansionslot cover on the computer. This drains any static electricity from the package and your body.
2 Remove the drive from the static-protective bag, holding the drive by the edges. Do not touch any exposed components on the drive.
3 Place the drive on the bag, on a flat surface.
4 When the Auto Start feature is enabled, the hard disk drive motor starts as soon as the computer is turned on. Locate the Auto Start jumper by referring to the documentation that came with your drive. If the Auto Start jumper is not in place, the hard disk is started by a command from the SCSI controller. For drives installed in IBM computers or storage enclosures ensure that this jumper is off. The hard disk drive is started in a staggered sequence. This reduces the start-up load on the power supply. For non-IBM computer, refer to the documentation that came with your computer for further information.
5 Set the SCSI ID that you selected. To remove a jumper, pull it straight off. To install a jumper, line up the two holes in the jumper with the appropriate two pins on the drive. Then push the jumper onto the pins until it is completely seated and covers both pins.
6 Store any jumpers you do not use in a safe place, in case you need to change the SCSI ID for this drive later. WARNING: If you have extra jumpers, do not store them on any of the extra pins on the connector. Storing them on a set of pins could damage the drive.
Step 2. Connecting the terminator
The location of the drive you are installing inside the computer or
storage enclosure determines whether you need to connect a terminator
or put a jumper on the Enable Active Termination pins. Read the
information in the following table to determine if you must install
the terminator. For more information about termination, refer to the
documentation that came with your computer.
Note: A SCSI chain of devices consists of multiple SCSI devices
connected by a SCSI cable to a SCSI controller.
If the hard disk drive is: Then:
The last physical device on a SCSI chain of Install the terminator
devices inside the computer.
The last physical device on a SCSI chain of Install the terminator
devices inside an external storage enclosure.
Step 3. Enabling term power
If your drive has a jumper for term power and your SCSI controller is
suppling term power, (check with the manufacturer of your controller)
then you do not need to enable the term power. The jumper should be
off. For help in locating the term power jumper, refer to the
documentation that came with your drive.
Step 4. Installing the drive
For the specific information on installing a hard disk drive, refer
to the documentation that came with your computer. You will be
required to mount the drive inside your computer, and connect signal
and power cables to the hard drive. When installed in an enclosure,
the drive is attached by cable to the external connector of a SCSI
controller. The controller can be either on a SCSI adapter or built
into the system board inside of your computer.
Note: Be sure to use the correct screws provided with your drive.
Using the wrong ones might cause damage to the drive.
Step 5. Completing the installation procedure
The installation of the drive is complete. Reinstall the cover on the
computer or storage enclosure. Store these instructions and any extra
parts in a safe place in case you change your configuration.
After installing your hard disk drive, use the information that came
with your computer to reconfigure your system. When you power on your
system, turn on all attached devices first; then turn on the
computer.
If you have any problems at this point, turn off all attached
devices; then, turn off the computer and check that:
1 The cables are installed correctly
2 No options or cables are loose
3 The SCSI ID is properly set
4 No two SCSI drives have the same SCSI ID
5 The terminators are properly installed
Turn on all attached devices; then, turn on the computer. If you
still have a problem, refer to the troubleshooting information in the
documentation that came with your computer.
Step 6. Update configuration
Whenever you add or remove an option from your computer, you must
update the configuration information. Your computer might have an
automatic configuration program, or you might have to follow a
specific procedure. For more information, refer to the documentation
that came with your computer.
Step 7. Preparing the drive for use
Having successfully installed the hard disk drive, you need to
prepare it for use. Depending on the operating system you are using,
you might need to partition then format the hard disk. Refer to the
documentation that came with your operating system for information on
how to format your new drive. To make the drive just installed your
primary drive, you might need to create a new system partition on the
drive. For information on creating a new system partition, refer to
the documentation that came with your operating system.
