DE50 IDE Install Guide
Removable Ultra ATA 100 Drive Enclosure
NOTE: For Ultra ATA100 (100MByte/sec) operation, an Ultra ATA100 control-
ler and hard drive(s), and appropriate 40-pin, 80-conductor cable are required.
Drive Carrier Installation
1. Loosen and remove the four (4) M3 Phillips Flat Hd. screws located on
the sides of the drive carrier unit. Save these screws for Step 6.
2. Since the drive carrier unit is shipped pre-assembled, disassemble the
drive carrier unit into its three (3) main components (Figure 1).
3. Install the Drive Carrier Circuit Board (cable-side down) onto the drive
by attaching the I/O cable on the board to the drive.
4. Set Master/Slave drive designation. There are two ways to set the
Master/Slave drive designation for the DE50 unit, as described below.
NOTE: The information below is based on typical drive specifications.
Since specifications (specifically, pin assignments) between drive
manufacturers may vary, please refer to your drive manufacturer’s
documentation for information regarding Master/Slave configuration.
Cable Select Method (Recommended Method)
In most cases, there is no need to reconfigure the jumper on JMP1 located
on the rear of the drive carrier circuit board. A factory-installed jumper on
Pins B & D forces the drive into a Cable Select configuration (Figure 2).
With Cable Selection, the Master/Slave Drive designation is handled by
the Master/Slave Selection Jumper Option (J2) on the receiving frame
motherboard. If necessary, reconfigure jumper (factory-configured jumper
is for Master Drive designation). Skip section “Drive Select Method” and
continue with Step 5 of the Installation process.

Drive Select Method
In most cases, this method forces the drive into either a Master or Slave
Drive configuration. This method will override any configuration of the Mas-
ter/Slave Selection Jumper Option (J2) on the receiving frame motherboard.
The J2 jumper option is instead used to configure the unit ID display.
Master Drive
Remove the jumper from JMP1. Typically, no jumper installed on JMP1
forces the carrier into a Master Drive configuration (Figure 2).
Leave the J2 jumper option (on the receiving frame motherboard) as is for
Master Drive ID display purposes (factory-configured jumper is for Master
Drive designation).
Slave Drive
Install the jumper on JMP1 Pins C & D (Figure 2). Typically, a jumper
installed on Pins C & D forces the drive into a Slave Drive configuration
(refer to the drive manufacturer’s documentation for exact master/slave
jumper settings and reconfigure the jumper as necessary).
Configure the J2 jumper option for Slave Drive ID display purposes.
5. Carefully turn the drive/circuit board assembly upside-down (drive is
bottom-mounted into bracket). Install the drive mounting bracket and
secure with four (4) M3 screws (provided).
NOTE: Make sure that the drive circuit board is properly seated in
the mounting bracket slot before tightening screws.
6. Carefully insert the drive/bracket assembly into the top cover and
secure with the four (4) M3 screws (saved from Step 1).

Master/Slave J2 Jumper Option on the Receiving Frame Mother-
board (Figure 3)
Master/Slave Selection Jumper (J2)
Master Drive configuration (Factory Default). Change jumper position to set
Slave Drive configuration.
Forces master/slave drive configuration on the receiving frame if JMP1
jumper option (located on the drive carrier circuit board) is configured to
Cable Select.
If using the Drive Select Method, this option is instead used to configure
the unit ID display (refer to Figure 4 for further information).
For 5.25” peripheral slots, the 5.25” adapter bracket must be installed. The
receiving frame is side-mounted into the adapter bracket using four (4) M3
Phillips Pan Head screws (provided).
With the drive carrier locked in place inside the receiving frame, install the
DE50 into the 5.25” drive opening in the computer or expansion chassis.
Use the appropriate guides to position the DE50 unit, and fasten it into
place with four (4) self-tapping screws (included). Mounting holes are pro-
vided on each side and the bottom of the adapter bracket to accommodate
a variety of mounting configurations. Use the mounting holes which best
suit the computer or expansion chassis configuration.
Unit ID Select Switches Settings
The following table lists the unit ID select switch settings and the valid AT/
IDE unit numbers. Please note that all invalid switch settings have shaded
boxes and result in a blank display in the receiving frame window.
NOTE: The unit ID number display is for ID display purposes only (when
using the Drive Select Method). The master/slave setting must still be set
on the DE50 unit itself (refer to Page 1 for further information).
Selecting the Unit ID Number
Use the alignment tool (provided) to select the ID number of the disk drive.
NOTE: The lock on the Data Express receiving frame functions as a
lock and a DC power switch for the carrier unit. The lock MUST be
engaged (turned counterclockwise) in order to supply power to the
carrier and installed drive unit.
