Instruction Manual  
Installation  
Please note: IDE1810U2Z includes two enclosure frames that can be used to  
house the hard drive, depending on the physical size of the drive. Prior to  
installation, please note which frame is suitable to accomodate the hard drive  
you will be using, allowing enough room within the enclosure to safely contain  
the hard drive and the necessary CE ATA connector.  
WARNING: Hard drives require careful handling, especially when being  
transported. If you are not careful with your hard disk, lost data may result.  
Always handle your hard drive and storage device with caution.  
Optional: Configuring the Drive Enclosure Frame  
If you find that the frame used in the pre-configured enclosure is not suitable (based on  
size) to house the hard drive you will be using, please follow steps #1-7. If the hard drive  
you will be using is small enough to fit within the enclosure as is, please skip to step #8.  
To replace the enclosure frame (according to the size requirements of the hard drive):  
1. Remove the screw located at the top of the enclosure frame.  
2. Using the clear plastic tab, gently pull the front panel off of the enclosure frame.  
3. a. Remove the circuit board from inside the enclosure. This can be done by gently  
applying outward pressure to the enclosure from inside, while lifting the bottom  
(closest to the center) of the circuit board out of the enclosure:  
3. b. Optional: Please note: IDE1810U2Z is pre-configured for installation of Toshiba  
hard drives. If you will be using an Hitachi hard drive, please replace the ZIF cable  
accordingly:  
Using your fingernails or a small  
slot-headed screwdriver, gently  
pull the interface tab (brown in  
color) out from the interface  
connector, in order to release the  
tension holding the ZIF cable in  
place. Remove the (pre-installed)  
Toshiba cable from the connector.

Insert the Hitachi ZIF cable into  
the slot, ensuring the blue tab is  
facing upward, in relation to the  
ZIF connector. Once the cable has  
been firmly placed, gently press  
the tab (brown) back in place, in  
order to secure the cable.  
Once secured, advance to step #4.  
4. Using a small, slot-headed screwdriver, gently pry the internal clips away from the  
enclosure frame. This may be required for all four clips, to ensure safe removal:  
5. Once the clips have been loosened, remove the rear panel from the enclosure:  
6. Fasten the rear panel (removed in step 5) to the alternately-sized enclosure frame:

place:  
8. Connect the CE IDE (zif) cable to the drive, such that the label of the hard drive  
is facing upward***.  
***Please note:  
IDE1810U2Z is pre-configured  
with a Toshiba compatible ZIF  
cable. If you are using an Hitachi  
hard drive, please refer to step  
#3. b, for information on how to  
replace the cable (included).  
9. Once the drive is connected, situate it in the enclosure so that the label is now facing  
into the enclosure:  
10.Place the front panel over the drive, by situating the bottom of the panel inside the  
enclosure, then securing the remainder:
