MIC-3043 User Manual 12
2.3.4 Connecting the rear I/O module
The MIC-3043 must be used with a proper rear I/O module. For enclo-
sures with a SCSI drive bay, the rear I/O module must also support the
internal SCSI function (e.g. RIO-3309S-A1). Please refer to the recom-
mended configuration list for details. To install the RIO module, please
follow the steps below:
1. Remove the blank panel above the system RIO slot. (We suggest
removing all the blank panels before inserting the RIO module.
2. Users will find two cables inside, one IDE (40-pin) cable and one
SCSI cable (68-pin)
3. Connect each cable to its connector on the I/O board, and then slide
the RIO module into the card cage.
4. Power up the system and check that all the storage devices work
properly.
2.3.5 Configuring the built-in RAID (SCSI) by RIO module
(MIC-3043C series only)
The MIC-3043C supports two SCSI HDD bays. The SCSI HDDs must be
used in conjunction with a RIO module that has SCSI RAID-1 built-in.
For details about configuring the RAID feature, please refer to the RIO
module user manual.

Note:
(1) Not all RIO modules support SCSI feature with
RAID function.
(2) RIO-3309S modules support built-in Adaptec
AIC-7901 (Ultra 320 SCSI controller chip) with
RAID function.
