Installing Your Adaptec Media Reader If you want to mount the Adaptec Media Reader in one of the available 3.5" drive bays, please follow the instructions in "Mounting Your AUA-7500A for Internal Use" below; otherwise, you can advance to page 10 "Connecting Your AUA-7500A for External Use". Mounting Your AUA-7500A for Internal Use To install your Adaptec Media Reader: 1. Turn off power to the computer and disconnect the power cord. 2. Open the computer cabinet, following the manufacturer's instructions. Caution: Discharge any static electricity build-up by touching a grounded metal object (such as the exposed metal parts on the back of your computer). 3. Prepare the drive bay for the installation of a new drive, following your computer manufacturer's instructions. 4. Hold the Adaptec Media Reader by its sides, top side up, and insert it into the drive bay, aligning the screw holes on the side of the Media Reader with the mounting holes of the drive bay. 5. Secure the Adaptec Media Reader in the drive bay, using the screws provided. Caution: Secure both sides of the Adaptec Media Reader, using all four screws. Securing only one side may cause the device to warp and fail. 6. Connect the USB cable to an internal USB port, following your computer manufacturer's instructions, or the instructions that came with your USB host adapter. Note: If you don't have an internal USB port or a USB terminal on your motherboard, Adaptec recommends the Adaptec USB2Connect AUA-5100 PCI USB 2.0 host adapter. 8
