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 according to the device’s specifications. Make sure that pin 1 of connector
J5 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 of
a few minutes occurs.
¾ Software initialization for specific operating systems. Refer to the OS documentation.
