Installing Internal Drives
There are five drive bays in your SuperMac J700. Counting from the
top right, bay 1 contains the factory-installed CD-ROM player, bay 2
is empty, bay 3 contains the floppy disk drive, bay 4 (below the
floppy drive) cannot be used because of a physical conflict with the
main logic board, bay 5 is empty, and bay 6 contains the factory-
installed hard disk.
All devices on the internal SCSI chain must have unique ID numbers
from 0 to 7. On the internal SCSI chain, the computer itself has the ID
number 7, the factory-installed hard disk has the number 0, and the
factory-installed CD-ROM player has the number 3.
IMPORTANT:
Set the SCSI ID for your additional drive before you install it in
your computer. See the manual that came with your drive for instructions.
To ensure accurate transmission of information, a terminator must be
at each end of a SCSI chain. Make sure that the last (or only) device in
the SCSI chain has a terminator. Make sure that no other internal SCSI
device has a terminator.
Installing an additional hard drive involves removing the drive holder
from the computer and then inserting the hard drive.
To remove the drive holder from the computer:
1.
Remove the cover and front panel of the computer.
See “Removing and Replacing the Cover and Front Panel.”
