Single-Enclosure

Configuration

The single-enclosure configuration is the simplest of the three supported

storage configurations. The single Avid MediaDock LVD is attached to the

Avid|DS workstation in a dual bus configuration as shown below.

To connect the Avid MediaDock LVD in a single-enclosure configuration

1. Locate one of the SCSI cables in the Avid MediaDock LVD kit. It has a

very-high-density SCSI connector at one end and a high-density 68-pin

connector at the other end.

2. Attach the very-high-density connector of the cable to the channel 1/A

connector of the Adaptec controller.

3. Attach the cable’s other high-density 68-pin connector to the corresponding

connector in the ESM module at the top rear of the Avid MediaDock LVD.

4. Locate the second SCSI cable; it is identical to the first.

5. Attach the very-high-density connector of the cable to the channel 2/B

connector of the Adaptec controller.

6. Attach the cable’s other high-density 68-pin connector to the

corresponding connector in the I/O module at the bottom rear of the

Avid MediaDock LVD.

In this configuration the drives in the Avid MediaDock LVD are shared

between the two SCSI buses.
