Avoiding Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Damage
The cover(s) and filler panel(s) installed on your equipment protect the electronic
circuits inside the equipment from electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage. However,
when you remove these covers and filler panels to replace or install subassemblies,
you can inadvertently damage the sensitive electronic circuits in the equipment by
simply touching them. Electrostatic charge that has accumulated on your body
discharges through the circuits. If the air in the work area is very dry, running a
humidifier in the work area will help decrease the risk of ESD damage. You must
follow the procedures below to prevent damage to the equipment.
CAUTION: Read and understand the following instructions before you remove the
cover(s) or panel(s) from the equipment.
•Provide enough room to work on the equipment. Clear the work site of any
unnecessary materials or materials that naturally build up electrostatic charge,
such as foam packaging, foam cups, cellophane wrappers, and similar materials.

About This Manual
014–002139
vi
•Do not remove replacement or upgrade subassemblies from their antistatic
packaging until the exact moment that you are ready to install them.
•Gather the tools, manuals, an ESD kit, and all other materials you will need
before you remove covers and panels from the equipment. Procedures for
removing subassemblies usually list required materials at the beginning. After
you remove a cover or panel, you should avoid moving away from the work site;
otherwise, you may build up an electrostatic charge.
•Use an ESD kit when handling circuit boards or when touching the electronic
circuits inside the equipment. If you don’t have an ESD kit, you can order one
from Data General. If an emergency arises and an ESD kit is not available,
follow the procedures in the “Emergency Procedures (without an ESD kit)”
section.
•Replace the cover(s) or panel(s) on the equipment as soon as possible so that the
electronic circuits are protected.
•If the equipment has an opening for an optional device (such as a mass–storage
drive), and the device is not installed, make sure a filler panel is installed in the
opening before connecting the equipment to the ac power outlet.
Emergency Procedures (without an ESD kit)
In an emergency when an ESD kit is not available, use the following procedures to
reduce the possibility of an electrostatic discharge by ensuring that your body and
the subassembly are at the same electrostatic potential.
CAUTION: These procedures are not a substitute for the use of an ESD kit. Follow
them only in the event of an emergency.
•Before touching any electronic circuits or boards inside the equipment, firmly
touch a bare metal (unpainted) surface of the equipment.
•Before removing any replacement or upgrade subassembly from its antistatic
bag, place one hand firmly on a bare metal (unpainted) surface of the chassis,
and at the same time, pick up the replacement or upgrade subassembly while it
is still sealed in the antistatic bag. Once you have done this, do not move
around the room or contact other furnishings, personnel, or surfaces until you
have installed and secured the subassembly in the equipment.
•Remove the subassembly from the antistatic bag, handling printed circuit boards
by the edges. Avoid touching components and circuits on a printed circuit board.
•If you must move around the room or touch other surfaces before securing the
subassembly in the equipment, first place the subassembly back in the antistatic
bag. When you are ready again to install the subassembly repeat these
procedures.
•Order an ESD kit from Data General for the next time you need to add or
remove a cover or panel.

Installing the Drive
This document explains how to install the Model 6662, 6796, and 6799 full-height
3Ć1/2 inch disk drive in a Data General computer system or mass-storage subsystem
that uses the small computer system interface (SCSI).
NOTE: This drive occupies a half-height slot.
Models 6662 and 6796 are singleĆended drives and Model 6799 is a differential drive.
NOTE: There are two versions of Model 6662 as shown in Figure 1. ersion A is
a 5Ć1/4 inch half-height drive and ersion B is a 3Ć1/2 inch full-height
drive. If you have Model 6662 ersion A, refer to the  

NOTE: The environmental specifications for the disk drive meet or exceed those of the
Data General computer system in which you install this disk drive. Refer to your
computer system documentation for the environmental specifications.
The singleĆended and the differential drive have no operational differences between
them. The only functional difference is that the differential drive can use a much
longer SCSI cable and therefore, can be physically located further from the C U than
a singleĆended drive. For example, the maximum length of a singleĆended SCSI bus is
slightly less than 20 feet, while a differential SCSI bus can be 82 feet long. You can use
the singleĆended model as a terminator resistor in a daisyĆchain configuration, while
the differential model does not have this capability.
NOTE: Never install differential and singleĆended drives on the same SCSI bus.
The SCSI bus signals and terminators differ.
You can distinguish between the drives by their size, printedĆcircuit board layout, and
their 118 numbers. The 118 numbers are on a label on the bottom side (the side
without the printedĆcircuit board) of the drives. Figure 2 shows the single-ended and
differential models.

CNH7 (Jumpers 1 through 6)
Jumpers 1 through 6 in Ta les 2 and 3 select the SCSI ID num er for the drive. SCSI
ID 0 (jumpers 1-2, 3-4, and 5-6 off) is the factory default setting. Each SCSI device
connected to your computer must have a unique SCSI ID num er. To choose the
correct SCSI ID num er, refer to the installation or setup manual for your computer
system. It lists the SCSI IDs for each category of drive that your computer system
supports; for example, disk, diskette, or tape. Refer to Ta le 2 or 3, and reset jumpers
1-2, 3-4, and 5-6 to select the SCSI ID num er that you have chosen. Use
needlenose pliers to add or remove the jumpers accordingly. Write down the SCSI ID
num er that you assign to the drive. You will need to specify this num er when you
access this drive with your operating system software.
CNH2 (Jumpers 1 through 4)
Jumpers 1 through 4 in Ta les 2 and 3 are used for factory testing. Do not change the
settings of these jumpers.
CNH1 (Jumpers 1 through 24)
Refer to your installation or setup manual for your computer system or mass-storage
su system. If one of these manuals requires a jumper setting different than the
factory default setting for jumpers 1 through 24 (for example, ena ling diagnostics
mode, instead of disa ling diagnostics mode), use needlenose pliers to add or remove
the jumpers accordingly. If there is no mention of the jumper's function in these
manuals, leave the jumper in the factory default position.
Installing or Removing the SCSI–Bus Terminating Resistor
Pack on the Model 6662 and 6796 Drive
Figure 5 shows the location of the remova le SCSI- us terminator resistor pack on
the Model 6662 and 6796 drive oard. Refer to the installing, maintaining, or
expanding manual for the computer system or mass-storage su system. In most
cases, you must remove this SCSI- us terminator resistor pack ecause the computer
systems and mass-storage su systems use an external SCSI- us terminator plug.
To remove the terminating resistor pack, use a small screwdriver to gently pry up each
end of the resistor pack, as shown in Figure 5, until you can lift the pack off with your
fingers.
To install the terminator reisistor pack, match the notch or key on the pack with the
notch or key on the drive oard socket, align the pins of the pack with the holes in the
socket as shown in, and insert the terminator pack into the socket.

CNH7 (Jumpers 1 through 6)
Jumpers 1 through 6 in Table 4 select the SCSI ID number for the rive. SCSI ID 0
(jumpers 1-2, 3-4, an 5-6 off) is the factory efault setting. Each SCSI evice
connecte to your computer must have a unique SCSI ID number. To choose the
correct SCSI ID number, refer to the installation or setup manual for your computer
system. It lists the SCSI IDs for each category of rive that your computer system
supports; for example, isk, iskette, or tape. Refer to Table 4, an reset jumpers 1-2,
3-4, an 5-6 to select the SCSI ID number that you have chosen. Use nee lenose
pliers to a or remove the jumpers accor ingly. Write own the SCSI ID number that
you assign to the rive. You will nee to specify this number when you access this
rive with your operating system software.
CNH3 (Jumpers 1 and 2)
Jumpers 1 an 2 in Table 4 are use for factory testing. Do not change the settings of
these jumpers.
CNH2 (Jumpers 1 through 4)
Jumpers 1 through 4 in Table 4 are use for factory testing. Do not change the settings
of these jumpers.
CNH1 (Jumpers 1 through 22)
Refer to your operating system manual an the installation or setup manual for your
computer system or mass-storage subsystem. If one of these manuals requires a
jumper setting ifferent than the factory efault setting for jumpers 1 through 22 (for
example, enabling iagnostics mo e, instea of isabling iagnostics mo e), use
nee lenose pliers to a or remove the jumpers accor ingly. If there is no mention of
the jumper's function in these manuals, leave the jumper in the factory efault
position.
Installing the Drive in the Computer or
Mass–Storage Subsystem
After you set the rive's jumpers, you are rea y to install the rive in your computer
system or mass-storage subsystem. You will nee to attach 3Ć1/2 inch to 5Ć1/4 inch
conversion brackets.

ou will need the conversion bracket kit and a medium (#2) Phillips screwdriver. The
conversion bracket kit includes:
Three metal brackets Ċ two side brackets and one end bracket
Screws
If you are installing the drive in a slot in the ECLIPSE MV/3500 computer system
where it will be difficult to connect the computer system's SCSI-bus cable to the
drive, you will need the SCSI-bus adapter cable (005-035005). For information on
the computer system's SCSI bus cable, refer to the computer system documentation.
1. Attach the side and end brackets to the drive with two screws each, as shown in
Figure 7.

2. Install the drive in a 5Ć1/4 inch half height drive slot in the computer or
mass-storage subsystem.
When you have installed the drive in the slot, you are ready to connect the cables to it
as described in the Connecting Cables to the Drive" section.
Connecting Cables to the Disk Drive
To connect the SCSI-bus cable and power cable to the drive, follow the instructions in
either the section for not using an adapter cable or the section for using an adapter
cable, whichever is applicable to your situation.
Connecting Cables When Not Using an Adapter Cable
To connect the cables to the drive when you are not using the SCSI-bus adapter
cable, follow these instructions:
