Adding a Floppy Drive
1-1
Overview
The SC813M series of chassis includes the SC813MS-420C, the SC813MT-420C,
the SC813MS-300C and the SC813MT-300C. These chassis come equipped with
a front side USB/COM port tray as part of the standard configuration. Supermicro
has designed the SC813M series so that the USB/COM port tray can be replaced
with a slim floppy drive. This addendum describes the process involved to remove
the front side USB/COM port tray and replace it with a slim floppy drive.
Floppy Kit
Before installing a slim floppy drive, you must obtain a floppy kit from your
Supermicro representative and a slim floppy drive (not included in the kit). The
items included in the floppy kit are listed below and shown in Figure 1.
The floppy kit contains:
One (1) floppy drive adapter
Two (2) floppy drive rails
One (1) floppy drive ribbon cable (to motherboard)
One (1) small ribbon cable (to adapter)
One (1) power cable
Five (5) screws (one large, four small)
