SEAGATE ST31250/32550-W/WD/WC INSTALLATION GUIDE 83328920 REV.E 10/95
Jumper Setting
==============
SCSI ID jumpers
---------------
Each device on the SCSI chain must have a unique SCSI ID. The
host system's SCSI controller usually uses the highest-numbered
ID available; therefore the lower-numbered SCSI IDs are normally
used for the other SCSI devices such as this Barracuda disc drive.
NOTE
Most SCSI controllers (host adapters) allow you to skip a SCSI ID.
For example, you can have ID0, ID1, and ID3 (skipping ID2). Other
controllers do not allow this so be sure to refer to your system or
controller user's manual for details about its requirements for
proper SCSI device installation.
Most Barracuda disc drives are factory set with the SCSI ID set
at 0. If, after completing the installation process, the drive's
LED does not show on/off activity when the host is trying to
communicate with the drive, a duplicate SCSI ID may be the
problem. If this is the case, change the ID so that each device
on the SCSI chain has its own unique ID.
Also check your system or controller user's manual to ensure that
you have not violated its SCSI ID numbering recommendations.
WC/DC drives
------------
Setting the SCSI ID jumpers
The SCSI ID for WC drives is normally set over the SCSI bus by the
host system using connector contacts 39 (ID0), 40 (ID2), 79 (ID1),
and 80 (ID3). Systems designers may, optionally, install a remote
operator panel connection to set the SCSI ID.
Terminating the drive (W Models)
--------------------------------
ST31250W and ST32550W drives are terminated with permanently mounted
IC active terminators. If you install one of these drives and it is
not on the end of the SCSI bus, disable the terminators by removing
the jumper from pins 5 and 6 of connector J1. If you install the
drive on the end of the SCSI bus, enable termination by installing a
jumper on pins 5 and 6 of connector J1.
NOTE
Use active terminators when terminating the bus.
ST31250WD and ST32550WD drives do not have internal terminators or
any other way of adding internal termination to the drive. You must
provide external active termination (ANSI SCSI-2 Alternative 2) to
these drives when termination is required.
ST31250WC and ST32550WC drives do not have internal terminators or
any other way of adding internal termination to the drive. You must
provide single-ended external active termination (ANSI SCSI-2
Alternative 2) to these drives when termination is required.
Terminator power
----------------
You usually will not need to change this option and can normally
leave the drive configured as it was shipped from the factory.
For information about how to change the terminator power option on
your drive.
Terminator power W Models
-------------------------
There are four possible terminator power configurations for ST31250W
and ST32550W drives. You will not normally need to change this option
and can leave the drive configured as it was shipped from the
factory.
ST31250WD and ST32550WD drives should be configured with a jumper
connecting J1 pins 1 and 3 (and no jumper on J1 pins 2 and 4).

Spindle Sync
------------
If you are installing two or more Barracuda drives, you may
(optionally) synchronize their spindles to reduce the latency
associated with switching from one drive to another. Spindle sync
cables are used to connect the drives.
After connecting each drive with spindle sync cables, designate a
master spindle sync reference source. This master source is normally
a disc drive located on the same SCSI bus as the other drives you
want to synchronize with. To designate a drive as the master, use
SCSI interface commands.
Synchronizing spindles WC Models
--------------------------------
Spindle synchronization for WC drives is normally handled on the
SSCI bus by the host system using connector contact 37 for the
spindle sync reference signal. System designers may, optionally,
install a spindle sync cable using pin 6 on the J4 connector to
provide +SSREF.

Enabling write cache
--------------------
Write caching is a feature that allows the drive to transfer write
data to its own cache, tell the controller that the task is complete,
and then actually complete the write at a later time. This improves
write performance by freeing the CPU to go on to its next command.
WARNING
Information can be lost is you enable write cache and there is a
system failure (for example, power failure) before the data has
actually been physically written to the disc.
OEM drives are shipped with write cache disabled by default. If
you want to enable the write cache, refer to your system's drive
controller and software utility documentation. Seagate provides an
ASPI utility that you can use in a PC compatible system to enable
the write cache.

The drive will operate in all axis (6 directions).
Mounting the drive and connecting cables
----------------------------------------
Do not touch the connector pins or any components on the control
board without observing static-discharge precautions. Always handle
the drive by the frame only.
The drive may be mounted in any orientation (horizontally,
vertically, and any combination thereof); however, you must ensure
that the drive receives adequate air flow for cooling.
1. Mount the drive to the host system's chassis using four 6-32
UNC screws. Two mounting holes are in each side of the drive
and there are four mounting holes in the bottom of the drive.
The maximum length that the screws should extend into the chassis
mounting holes is 0.15 inch (3.81 mm), measured from the outer
surface of the chassis. Tighten the screws down evenly. Do not
overtighten or force the screw if it does not seem to screw in
easily, because this means the threads are not properly aligned.
In this case, back the screw out and try again.
2. Verify that all connections between the drive and the host system
are correctly installed.
3. Verify that you have correctly installed jumpers.
4. Connect the 50-pin SCSI cable into the drive's SCSI connector.
Take care not to stretch or crimp this cable, and do not block
the system's cooling air flow with the cable.
The drive receives DC power through a 4-pin connector mounted next
to the SCSI connector. The output of a power supply must meet SELV
(safety extra low voltage) as defined in IEC 950. To connect the
DC power cable to the drive, insert the cable end into the drive's
DC power connector.
NOTE
Signal ground on the power control board (PCB) and the head and
disc assembly (HDA) are connected together in this drive and you
cannot separate them. The equipment in which you have mounted the
drive is connected directly to the HDA and PCB without electrically
isolating shock mounts. Maximizing the conductive contact area
between HDA ground and system ground may reduce radiated emissions.
If you do not want the system chassis to be connected to the HDA/PCB
ground, you must provide a nonconductive (electrically isolating)
method of mounting the drive in the host system. This may increase
radiated emissions and is the system designer's responsibility.
5. Replace the host system's cover.
This mounting procedure does not apply to WC or DC model drives!
To mount a WC or DC drive, plug the drive into the system's single
connector attachment (SCA) position on the system's back panel.
Providing adequate cooling
--------------------------
The enclosure design must ensure adequate cooling for the drive.
The maximum ambient temperature is 50*C.
We recommend orienting the drive or directing the air flow in a
way that creates the least amount of air-flow resistance while
providing air flow above the circuit boards and around the head and
disc assembly (HDA). Also, choose the shortest possible path between
the air inlet and exit. This minimizes the distance traveled by air
that is heated by the drive and by other nearby heat sources.

Preface
-------
This manual contains information for users of the Seagate ST31250
and ST32550 Barracuda 2LP SCSI disc drives. It provides support
services, performance specifications, and initial setup information.
Additional information is available in the Barracuda 2LP Product
Manual (part number 83328930). Contact your Seagate sales
representative if you need to order this publication.
Electrostatic discharge protection
----------------------------------
Caution.
Removal of circuit boards by personnel not performing depot
repair will damage components and may void the warranty.
All drive electronic assemblies are sensitive to static electricity,
due to the electrostatically sensitive devices used within the drive
circuitry. Although some devices such as metaloxide semiconductors
are extremely sensitive, all semiconductors, as well as some
resistors and capacitors, may be damaged or degraded by exposure
to static electricity.
Electrostatic damage to electronic devices may be caused by the
direct discharge of a charged conductor or by exposure to the
static fields surrounding charged objects. To avoid damaging drive
electronic assemblies, observe the following precautions when
installing or servicing the drive:
- Ground yourself to the drive whenever the drive electronics are
or will be exposed. Connect yourself to ground with a wrist strap
(Seagate part number 12263496). Connection may be made to any
grounded metal assembly. As a general rule, remember that you and
the drive electronics must all be grounded to avoid potentially
damaging static discharges.
- Turn off the power before removing or installing the DC power
cable.
- Do not remove any circuit boards from the drive.
- Never use an ohmmeter on any circuit boards.
- When installing the drive on a carrier or tray, discharge the
static electricity from the carrier or tray prior to inserting it
into the system.
Important safety information and precautions
--------------------------------------------
Caution. Use forced-air ventilation when bench testing the drive to
ensure proper cooling of drive components.
Use proper safety and repair techniques for safe, reliable operation
of this unit. Service should be done only by qualified persons.
The procedures in this manual and labels on the unit contain warnings
and cautions that must be carefully read and followed to minimize or
eliminate the risk of personal injury. The warnings point out condi-
tions or practices that may endanger you or others. The cautions
point out conditions or practices that may damage the unit, possibly
making it unsafe for use.
Always observe the following warnings and precautions:
- Perform all maintenance by following the procedures in this manual.
- Follow all cautions and warnings in the procedures.
- Use sound safety practices when operating or repairing the unit.
- Use caution when troubleshooting a unit that has voltages present.
Turn off power to the unit before servicing it.
- Wear safety shoes when removing or replacing heavy parts.
- Ensure that the internal temperature of the rack or cabinet does
not exceed the limits defined for the drive when the drive is
mounted in an equipment rack or cabinet. When units are stacked
vertically, pay special attention to the top where temperatures
are usually highest.
- Do not remove any circuit boards from the drive chassis. Return
the entire drive for depot repair if any circuit board is
defective. Removal of circuit boards by personnel not performing
depot repair will damage components and may void the warranty.
- Do not remove the head and disc assembly (HDA) from the drive
chassis. Return the entire drive for depot repair if the HDA is
defective.
- Do not attempt to disassemble the HDA. It is not field repairable.
If the sealed HDA is opened by personnel not performing depot
repair, this will damage compo-nents and void the warranty.
As a component, this drive is designed to be installed and operated
in accordance with UL1950, IEC950, EN60950, CSA C22.2 950, and
VDE0805.
Typical applications of these disc drives include customer packag-
ing and subsystem design. Safety agencies conditionally certify
component assemblies, such as the Barracuda disc drive, based on
their final acceptability in the end-use product. The subsystem
designers are responsible for meeting these conditions of accept-
ability in obtaining safety, regulatory agency compliance in their
end-use products and for certifying where required by law. A
necessary part of meeting safety requirements is the provision
for overcurrent protection on drive SELV supply voltages.
This unit is a component part and as such is not meant to comply
with FCC or similar national requirements as a standalone unit.
Engineering radiated emissions test results are available through
the Seagate Safety Department to assist the subsystem designer.
General description
-------------------
Barracuda 2LP SCSI disc drives are high-speed, randomaccess digital-
data storage devices.
The drive is a component for installation in an enclosure designed
for the drive. This is often a rack within the system or an external
enclosure designed to house one or more disc drives or other
peripheral units. In either case, the disc drive must receive
adequate cooling and it must be sufficiently grounded and
shielded from emissions. The Barracuda 2LP Product Manual (part
number 83328930) contains guidelines for a properly designed
enclosure.
