Hardware Installation

Remove one of the drive trays by pressing on the left side of the1.

drive tray. This will cause the tray’s locking arm to swing out. Hold the

arm and pull the tray out.

Place the hard drive into the tray. Line up the holes in the bottom of2.

the tray with the holes in the bottom of your drive. Use the provided

screws to secure the hard drive to the tray.

Slide the tray back into the slot. When the tray is all the way back into3.

the slot, press the locking arm back in until you hear a “click” sound.

This indicates that the tray and hard drive are properly installed.

Repeat these steps for the other hard drives.4.

Install the backplane into open 5.25” drive bays in your system case.5.

Follow the directions from the case manufacturer.

Use the 7-pin Serial ATA (SATA) signal cables to connect the 7-pin6.

hard drive (HDD) ports on the back of the backplane to your SATA or

SAS controller.

NOTE: Some SAS controller cards use an SFF-8484 or SFF-8087

connector. A special breakout cable to 7-pin SATA connectors would

be required to plug into the backplane

(ie. StarTech.com ID: SAS84SS450).

To power the backplane, use7. either the 15-pin SATA or 4-pin LP4

molex connectors from your power supply. If you use the LP4 molex

connectors, the power will automatically be converted to SATA

power. Both types of power connectors do not need to be plugged

in.

Driver Installation

No driver installation is required for any operating system, as this

backplane is only a passthrough for the hard drives, so it is not seen by

the operating system.

Using Your Backplane

Reset: The Reset button/LED on the front of the backplane serves as

both a reset switch and an overheating LED. When overheating occurs,

a buzzer will sound and the Reset LED will ﬂash. To stop the alarm,

press the Reset button.

HD1, HD2, etc: The HD buttons/LEDs on the front of the backplane

serve as both the power switches and power LEDs for each drive. To

turn power to the drive on or off, push the corresponding HD button (Do

not turn off power when the drive is in use!).

When the drive is powered, the corresponding LED will be lit.

Note: The default temperature at which the alarm will sound is 60ºC

(140ºF). Using jumpers on the back of the backplane (JP1), you can

also set the temperature to 55ºC (131ºF) or 65ºC (149ºF).

Fan Sensor: The fan sensor LED on the front of the backplane

indicates the activity of the backplane’s fan. If the fan sensor LED is lit

green, the fan is working properly. If the fan fails, the fan sensor LED

will be lit red.
