StorageWorks Solutions 5 1/4-Inch Storage Device Install Guide

This document is an installation guide for 5¼-inch fixed and removable media storage devices into StorageWorks SWXBB-BB series modular carrier kits to create StorageWorks building blocks (SBBs). It is intended for personnel responsible for installing these storage devices.

The guide is structured into three main parts:

1. Preliminary Procedures: Covers device qualification, compatibility checks (including physical dimensions, power, cooling, SCSI bus, and mounting hardware specifications), and emphasizes critical electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions.
2. Installing a Full-Height or Lower Half-Height Device: Details the step-by-step process, which includes connecting the ID cable harness and universal SCSI cable (with specific folding instructions), aligning and mounting the device, mounting LEDs (for fixed media), assembling the SBB, attaching the bezel, and setting the device SCSI ID address.
3. Installing an Upper Half-Height Device: Provides a similar sequence of steps for installing a second half-height device in the upper position of the SBB.

The document provides detailed instructions, figures, and tables to ensure proper installation and compatibility, with repeated warnings about ESD and the importance of setting unique SCSI ID addresses.
