To install the hard disk, perform the following operations:

¾ Hardware installation. Connect the hard disk to the module using a data cable, and then

connect the hard disk to the power supply respecting the device’s specifications. Make sure
that pin 1 of connector J9 and pin 1 of the drive or drives are correctly connected. Pin 1 of the
interface cable is usually indicated by a stripe along the edge of the cable. If two hard disks
need to be connected, they must be configured for common operation (i.e. master/slave or
cable select connection).

¾ IDE BIOS Setup. The hard disk parameters can be configured using the Setup program. If

the hard disk is connected to the module without setup configuration or with a wrong setup
configuration, a time-out for a few minutes occurs, then the boot is performed from the floppy
disk.

¾ Software initialization for specific operating systems. Refer to the OS documentation.
