Cheetah 18 Installation Guide, Rev. A 15
General description
Cheetah 18 SCSI disc drives are high-speed, random-access
digital-data storage devices capable of operating in single-ended
(SE) or low voltage differential (LVD) modes.
These two modes are offered to allow you to use this drive in
systems that use the traditional SE technology or to use it in
LVD-capable systems. Refer to page 20 for additional informa-
tion about LVD technology.
The drive is a component for installation in an enclosure
designed for the drive. This is often a rack within the system or
an external enclosure designed to house one or more disc drives
or other peripheral units. In either case, the disc drive must
receive adequate cooling (refer to “Providing adequate cooling”)
and it must be sufficiently grounded and shielded from emis-
sions. The
Cheetah 18 Product Manual
(part number 83329260)
contains guidelines for a properly designed enclosure.
Attention.
This high performance Cheetah disc drive must have
proper power and cooling for reliable operation.
