drawings to fully utilize every square inch of space. The 2000I-DP and the HDIT-

108R is comprised of the following features:

• (2) 2U heavy-duty industrialized 90-mil. rack-mount server chassis (24”x19”x3.5”)

• Locking slide rails

• 300W auto-switching power supply for 2000I-DP and HDIT-108R

• 2 high performance blowers for thermal dissipation across the HDIT chassis

• Dual 1GHz. Pentium

III processors each with 256KB high-performance cache

• Genuine Intel

motherboard featuring the Server Works Set III LE chipset

• On-board SCSI controller

• On-board 4MB SGRAM video adapter

• Dual On-board 10/100 NIC’s

• PCI RAID Controller with 16MB of RAID Cache

• 512MB 100MHz. SDRAM/ECC RAM, expandable to 2GB

• (2) 2GB Ultra2 Wide SCSI LVD, hot-swap hard drives - 2000-I-DP

• (4) 18GB Ultra-Wide SCSI, hot-swap hard drives - HDIT-108R

• Internal SCSI PC Card Reader

• 48X E-IDE CD-ROM

• SCSI Linking Cable

• 3.5” 1.44MB Floppy Drive

• Microsoft NT Server 4.0

RAID Drive Rebuild

In the event that a hot-swap drive should fail, the HDIT-108R will still maintain

operation of the machine, but the machine is considered “critical”. The HDIT-108R

will still function at full capacity, however the damaged drive should be replaced as

quickly as possible. Go to Page 4 for detailed instructions on the replacement of a

new hot-swap hard drive for the HDIT-108R. Once the failed drive has been replaced,

the 2000I-DP will automatically recognize and initialize the replacement drive.

Top Access Removal Instructions

When servicing the 2000I-DP or the HDIT-108R, disconnect the unit from the

power source, and remove the power cord (See Pages 10 & 11). All 22 (See

Figure 20) screws need to be removed from the Top Access Panel to service the

unit.

Note: The two screws are located on the Front Panel of the 2000I-DP.

Failure to remove those will result in damaging the Top Access Panel.

The 2000I-DP or the HDIT-108R should never be serviced without contacting

TAG’s Tactical Technical Support Team first.

Figure 20

HDIT-108R Features

The data storage for the system comes from the fail-safe 54GB HDIT-108R,

(See Figure 2). The HDIT-108R is powered by a 300W auto-switching power

supply. Four hot-swap 18GB Ultra-Wide SCSI hard drives methodically stripe the

data. Should a hard drive fail within the HDIT-108R, the RAID controller will

seamlessly activate the “warm spare” drive. The defective hard drive should be

replaced as quickly as possible. Refer to page 4 for hot-swap hard drive replacement.

2000I-DP Features

The heart of the system is the 2000I-DP. Dual 850MHz Pentium III processors

and 512MB of RAM makes this low-profile server a powerful one. It is equipped

with a DAT backup device, a ZIP Drive, LS-120 Drive, Floppy Drive, CD-ROM, and a

PC Card Reader. All devices are easily accessable from the front panel.

Connecting HDIT-108R to the 2000I-DP

The 2000I-DP is connected to the HDIT-108R by the external SCSI connec-

tor, (See Figure 19). The server connects to the left SCSI RAID connector. When

connecting the components of the system, make sure the connectors are well

seated in the port.

HDIT-108R

Rear Panel

The HDIT-108R connects to the 2000I-DP with the connectors located in the

center of the rear panel, (See Figure 17). When connecting the HDIT-108R to the

2000I-DP, make sure the connectors are well seated in the port.

Front Panel - PC Card (PCMCIA) Reader

The 2000I-DP is equipped with a Fortezza compliant PC Card reader located on

the front panel. TAG has configured the reader with SCSI #3. Refer to page 10 for all

SCSI IDs. The reader contains two slots which is designed to accept Type I, Type II,

and Type III card types. The upper card slot accepts only Type I and Type II cards. If a

Type III card is placed in the lower card slot of either PC Card reader, the upper slot is

not available.

The PC Card reader is equipped with four LED indicators and two card eject

buttons, (See Figure 7). The upper card eject button is on the left side of the slots

and the lower card eject button is on the right side of the slots.

The green LED on the left side of the unit indicates power is being supplied to that

unit. The red LED, positioned below the power indicator, will illuminate for one of

the following three reasons:

• No card is inserted. When a card is inserted correctly, the red LED turnsoff.

• A slot is accessed in which no card is inserted. The red LED remains lit until the

card in the other slot is accessed.

• A card is inserted, but it cannot be accessed by the PC Card reader. This error can

have various causes; for example, the unit is attempting to write data to a write-

protected, a read-only, or an unknown I/O card or a hardware error exists on the

card.

The amber LEDs, on the right side of the PC Card reader, are the access indicators

for the upper and lower slots. The LED will illuminate when there is data activity on

the PC Card bus.

2000I-DP Rear Panel

The connectors for all of the external peripherals are located on the left side

of the rear panel of the 2000I-DP, (See Figures 14 & 15). When connecting

peripherals, make sure the connectors are well seated in the port.

The main system power switch is located below the power supply on the

right side (See Figures 14 & 16). Refer to page 7 for more information regarding

the power supply. When mounting both the 2000I-DP and the HDIT-108R into a

rack, please make sure all connections are secured in their appropriate ports

before sliding the unit into the rack.

Floppy Drive

The 2000I-DP is equipped with a standard 1.44MB Floppy Drive. Like the

SuperDisk, it uses standard 3.5” Floppy Disk media. To eject the floppy disk, press

the floppy eject button located on the right side of the drive. Do not eject the

media if the floppy drive activity light, located on the left side of the drive, is lit.

HDIT-108R

Front Panel - Hot-Swap RAID Hard Drives

The HDIT-108R is equipped with four hot-swap 18GB Ultra 2 Wide SCSI LVD

hard drives, (See Figures 10 & 11). TAG has configured the removable drives with

the following SCSI ID’s: The bottom left drive, Drive 1, is SCSI ID #0 and the top

left drive, Drive 2, is SCSI ID # 1 the bottom right drive, Drive 3, is SCSI ID #2 and

the top right drive, Drive 4, is SCSI ID # 3. Refer to page 10 for all SCSI IDs. In the

event that one drive should fail, simply remove it and replace it with a working

drive.

To remove either drive, insert the hard drive module key and turn the keylock to

the unlocked position. Grab the handle and slide the drive out. Insert the replace-

ment drive into the 2000I-DP and return the keylock to the locked position.

The 2000I-DP is equipped with an 48X E-IDE CD-ROM, (See Figures 1 & 8).. To

load a CD, press the CD tray eject button. Place the CD on the CD tray, and press

the tray eject button again. The CD activity light will illuminate intermittently, as

the CD is read.
