Connect and test power to the drive
About this task
The drive does not contain its own power source; it must be powered externally.
To connect and test power to the drive, complete the following steps:
1. Ensure that the enclosure (or unit that supplies power to the drive) is powered
off.
2. Ensure that the power cord is disconnected from both the enclosure and the
power outlet.
3. Connect the enclosure internal power cable to the power connector on the drive
(see 2 in “Rear view of the drive” on page 2).
4. Connect the power cord to the enclosure and to the electrical outlet.
5. Review the location of the single-character display (SCD) and the status LED in
Figure 2 on page 2. To ensure that the drive is receiving power, watch for the
following while turning on the power to the enclosure:
v During the power-on/initialization and POST (Power-On Self Test), the SCD
briefly displays

, then becomes blank (not lit) when POST is complete and there are no POST
errors. If a POST error has been detected, an error code will be displayed in
the SCD and the status LED will flash amber.
