ERS/FT Disk Drive Bay


Disk Drive Bay

The standard disk drive bay in the ERS FT will accommodate one floppy disk drive and up to nine third-height 3.5" hard disk drives.

An optional disk drive bay capable of supporting either nine 3.5" TH hard disk drives or up to eighteen 2.5" TH hard disk drives is also available.

Each 2.5" disk support bracket can handle one 3.5" TH drive or two 2.5" hard drives. The 2.5" drives only require one connector each. Both IDE data and +5 volts drive power are routed through one 44-pin 2mm ribbon connector. The cable may be directly connected to Cubix QL 3222 processors.

Each 3.5" TH disk drive requires two connections: one for power and one for data. The disk drives obtain power from connectors on the ISA backplane - nine connectors are supplied. The data cables for each IDE disk drive installed in the subsystem are connected directly to the Cubix processor IDE disk drive controller header located on the top edge of the BC board. The cable is a 40-pin ribbon.
