Addonics Technologies DCMR256SC User Manual

Enclosure and Drive Cradle Overview  
The drive enclosure is the enclosure where a SATA hard drive is mounted and  
secured by 4 screws.  
Drive cradle, also known as fixed tray, is the frame that mounts inside the drive  
bay of a desktop, server or any computing equipment. The drive cradle provides  
both power and data connection between the computer and the drive enclosure.  
The Diamond cipher drive cradle fits into any standard 5 ¼” drive bay and can  
connect to the computer via IDE or SCSI. The Diamond drive cradle is  
compatible with all Diamond drive enclosures and Diamond cipher Drive  
enclosures. As a result you can insert SATA or IDE hard drive, encrypted or  
unencrypted, into the same drive cradle of a computer.

equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed and  
used in accordance with the instructions, it may cause harmful interference to radio  
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a  
particular installation. If the equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or  
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user  
is encouraged to try and correct the interference by one or more of the following  
suggestions.

Step 4  
Cable Connections  
Turn the Diamond enclosure over with  
the hard drive mounting holes facing  
up. Use the included flat head screws  
to secure the hard drive onto the  
bottom of the enclosure and turn in  
the screw to the “LOCK” position.  
Model: DCMR256I  
Power: Using the 4-pin floppy connector of the Y-cable, connect it to the floppy-  
type power connector on the converter. To provide power for the y-cable,  
connect it to one of your desktop's 4-pin molex cable.  
Data: Connect the IDE ribbon cable to the 40-pin IDE connector of the SATA to  
IDE converter board and to the IDE channel of your motherboard.  
LED cable: No need to connect. By factory default, LED signal would come from  
the hard drive.  
Powering On Drive Cradle:  
To power on the drive cradle, slide in the Diamond cartridge and using the key  
(supplied), turn the cradle lock located at the front of the cradle to the LOCK  
position. This will provide power as indicated by the green LED lighting up and  
secure the cartridge.  
Powering On the Mobile Rack:  
Note: Be sure the Diamond cipher key is inserted into the drive enclosure prior  
to turning on the power of the drive cradle. The hard drive will not be  
detected by the computer if the power to the drive cradle is turned on  
without the Cipher key. Under such condition, the power on the drive  
cradle will have to be turned off and turned back on again with the  
Cipher key already inserted into the drive enclosure in order to detect  
the hard drive.  
IDE-SATA Converter  
Power Switch:  
To power on the enclosure, use the key provided to turn the locking mechanism  
on the drive cradle into the Lock position. When the switch is turned on, the  
green LED located on the left side of the drive cradle would light up to indicate  
power. The encryption key LED will also light up. The amber LED will blink if  
there is drive activity.

Note: Brand new hard drive must be partitioned and formatted first before a  
drive letter is assigned by the OS. When a hard drive with data on it is  
formatted with the Diamond cipher all the data will be erased.

Once the drive is detected by the system OS, the Diamond cipher key  
may be removed from the drive enclosure. The encryption key LED will  
turn off but the Diamond Cipher hard drive will continue operating  
normally (encrypting) till it is removed from the system or powered off.  
Note: This configuration would not support hot-swap.
