General Description
The StorCase Technology
Data Express
®
DE300i-SWC
is composed of a receiving frame
with 68-pin SCSI Wide connectors and fits within 5.25" full-height peripheral slots. The
receiving frame contains three (3) removable drive carriers designed to provide durable
and reliable mounting for three (3) 3.5" form factor x 1" high SCSI drives. The DE300i-
SWC is specifically designed for Single Connector Attachment (SCA) SCSI drives (Figure
2).
The DE300i-SWC allows a drive to be removed and transported to another DE300i-SWC-
equipped computer or expansion chassis, and also provides the ability to secure sensitive
data by removing and storing the drive safely for future use. The DE300i-SWC is
particularly well suited for RAID configurations, combining wide receiving frame I/O
connectors with three (3) removable single connect (SCA) drive carriers.
This User's Guide describes the steps required to install the StorCase Data Express
(DE300i-SWC) removable enclosure inside a computer peripheral bay or external
expansion chassis. This guide supplements documentation provided with the host
computer system, operating system, and the drive to be installed within the DE300i-SWC
carrier.
