Supported Features.

This product (and associated software) is intended to be used primarily

of

audio CDs using this product and software. It is also recommended that you DO NOT use this drive

as a backup tool.

Hardware Installation

The A785xA CD-RW drive you have purchased may be installed in any one of several models of HP-

UX Workstations - b1000, b2000, b2600, c3000, c3600, c3650, c3700, j5600, j6000 or j6700. For com-

plete instructions on how to install the drive on your system, please refer to the appropriate Owners

Guide, Parts Replacement Guide or Technical Reference for your system. These documents can be

found at:

http://www.hp.com/workstations/support/documentation/hpux_manuals.html

This CD-RW drive can either be installed to replace an existing CD-ROM drive or as a new drive

where none existed before. It also may have been integrated into your computer at the HP factory. HP

CD-RW drives were designed to operate in the horizontal position. Do not position your workstation

so the CD-RW drive is in a vertical position.

If you are replacing an existing CD-ROM drive with the CD-RW Drive, you must load the

PHKL_24282

(for HP-UX 11.0) or

PHKL_24283

(for HP-UX 11i) patches from the CD-RW software

media. If you are installing a new drive where none existed before, you must load the patches from

the

http://us-support.external.hp.com

web site. Make sure these patches are installed on your sys-

tem

before attempting to install the hardware.
