Part 1: Quick Installation Guide

This section contains abbreviated installation instructions. For more

detailed information, go to “Part 2: User’s Guide” on page 2-1.

The IBM Zip 100 MB IDE Internal Drive is a 3.5-inch ATAPI (ATA

Packet Interface) drive that works only with Zip diskettes, and can be

installed only in computers that use the AT attachment/integrated drive

electronics (ATA/IDE) architecture. You can conserve space on your

hard disk drive by using your Zip IDE drive to store and organize

storage-intensive files on Zip 100 MB1 diskettes. Zip 100 MB

diskettes can easily hold large-capacity files that contain multimedia,

imaging, transaction processing, or databases. The Zip IDE drive and

Zip diskettes are supported by Microsoft Windows 98, Windows 95,

Windows NT, Windows 3.1, OS/2 Version 4 and DOS Version 5.0 or

higher.

Follow these steps to install the Zip 100 MB IDE internal drive in

your computer.

Step 1. Opening the Computer

1. Turn off the computer and all attached devices.

2. Unplug the cables from the power outlets for your computer and

all attached devices.

It is now safe to open your computer.

For specific information about opening your computer, see the

documentation that comes with the computer.

1MB means 1000000 bytes.

Step 2. Unpacking the Drive

Follow these steps when you unpack your drive.

1. Do not open the antistatic bag until you are ready to install the

drive. Static electricity can damage the drive and other computer

components.

2. Touch your hand and the inner conductive surface of the antistatic

bag containing the drive to an unpainted metal surface on the

computer for two seconds. This drains static electricity from the

bag and your body.

3. Before handling the drive, ground yourself by touching an

unpainted surface on the computer. Ground yourself again after

leaving and returning to your work area.

4. Always handle the drive by its edges. Do not touch any exposed

printed circuitry, components or connector pins.

5. While installing the drive, avoid all unnecessary handling. Rough

handling can damage the heads, rotating disks, and bearings

inside the drive housing.

6. If you must put the drive down, place the antistatic bag on a flat

padded surface, such as a magazine, and place the drive on the

bag with the component side facing up.

7. Do not insert a Zip diskette when the drive power is off.

Step 3. Setting the Configuration Jumpers

You can configure your Zip IDE drive as Slave, Master, or Cable

Select.

Note: The Cable Select configuration does not apply to IBM

computers. If you are using an IBM computer, disregard the

Cable Select information below.

The jumper setting configurations for your drive are shown in the

following diagram:

Slave

(Factory Setting)

Master

Cable Select

Jumper block

1-2 Zip 100MB IDE Internal Drive User’s Guide

Use the following guidelines to determine the correct configuration for

your Zip IDE drive:

Slave

The Zip IDE drive comes configured as a Slave so that you can install

it as a second drive on an IDE connection when the first drive is a

Master. If there is one drive connected to the cable before the Zip

IDE drive is installed, the first drive is probably configured as a

Master. However, some IDE drives require a configuration other than

Master when a second drive is connected to the IDE interface cable.

Also, many CD-ROM drives will not support a Slave drive. If you

connect the Zip IDE drive to the same IDE interface cable as a

CD-ROM drive, you might need to configure the Zip IDE drive as the

Master and the CD-ROM drive as the Slave.

Refer to the documentation that came with your existing IDE drive for

jumper setting information.

Master

Configure the Zip IDE drive as a Master if you are installing the Zip

drive as the only drive on the IDE cable, or if the Zip IDE drive will

be one of two drives connected to the cable, and the other drive is

configured as a Slave. A Zip IDE drive that is configured as a Master

will support a drive (a second Zip IDE drive, an IDE hard disk drive,

or a CD-ROM drive) that is configured as a Slave.

Cable Select

Note: The Cable Select configuration does not apply to IBM

computers. If you are using an IBM computer system,

disregard the Cable Select information below.

Some systems use special ATA cables with two wires reversed in the

device connectors to allow the drives to be ordered by the cable rather

than by the jumper position. The Cable Select position is to be used

only for systems equipped with these special cables. See the

documentation that comes with your computer to determine if your

ATA adapter requires you to place the jumpers in the Cable Select

position.

If you place the jumpers in the Cable Select position, the IDE cable

automatically assigns the Master and Slave settings based on the

position of the drive on the cable. You must use the Cable Select

setting for this cabling system whether the Zip IDE drive is the only

drive or the second drive connected to the cable. The drive closest to

the IDE controller is automatically the Master drive. Any other

devices on the IDE cable must also be set to Cable Select.

What to Do Next

If you are installing the drive in a 3.5-inch bay, go to “Step 5.

Mounting the Drive in the Bay” on page 1-4.

If you are installing the drive in a 5.25-inch bay, you must purchase a

3.5-inch to 5.25-inch conversion kit (not included with this option)

from a commercial dealer. Then, continue with “Step 4. Preparing the

Drive for a 5.25-inch Bay” on page 1-4.

Part 1: Quick Installation Guide 1-3

Step 4. Preparing the Drive for a 5.25-inch Bay

You must use a commercially available 3.5-inch to 5.25-inch

conversion kit to install the Zip IDE drive in a 5.25-inch bay. See the

documentation that comes with your conversion kit for directions on

installing the drive in a 5.25-inch bay.

Step 5. Mounting the Drive in the Bay

Attention: Be sure to use the mounting screws that come with

your drive. You might damage your drive if you use mounting

screws that are too long.

You can mount the drive horizontally or vertically in your computer.

To mount the drive in the bay:

1. Locate a vacant drive bay and remove the panel cover.

2. Slide the drive into the bay.

3. Align the front of the Zip drive with other drives installed in the

computer.

4. Align the drive-bay screw holes with the threaded holes in the

drive housing or expansion brackets. If there is not clear access

to the drive-bay screw holes, refer to the documentation that came

with your computer for additional instructions.

5. Hand thread the screws to lightly secure the drive in the bay, as

shown.

(If the drive is held in place securely by rails, you will not need

to use the mounting screws.)

6. Check the drive alignment and tighten the screws.

Do not overtighten.

1-4 Zip 100MB IDE Internal Drive User’s Guide

Step 6. Connecting the Drive and the Cables

Connect the drive to an available 40-pin connector on the IDE

interface cable. The interface cable can have up to three connectors.

For the best signal quality when you are connecting only one device

on the IDE cable, connect one end of the cable to the IDE port and

connect the device to the connector on the other end of the cable. Do

not use the middle connector.

If you are connecting two devices on the IDE cable, connect one end

of the cable to the IDE port and connect the Master and Slave devices

to the remaining connectors on the other end. Many computers have

two cables for attaching up to four ATA devices. For best

performance, attach fast devices (hard disk drives) on one cable and

slower devices (CD-ROM drives, tape drives or removable media

drives) on the second cable. If you must move a slower device to a

second cable, see your computer manual for information on correctly

configuring the device.

Connect an available DC power-cable connector to the four-pin DC

power connector on the Zip IDE drive, as shown.

Pin 40

Pin 1

The cable connector is keyed and fits only one way. Be sure that the

cables will not be pinched or crowded by the computer cover and that

all other cable and power connections are secure.

Step 7. Completing the Installation of the Drive

To complete the installation of the drive:

1. Verify that the drive is securely mounted and the cables are

firmly attached.

2. Verify that the cables do not interfere with the computer cover

and do not block the power-supply fan blades or air-flow paths.

3. Reinstall the computer cover.
