Atomos Shogun 7 – User Manual Edition 1: November 2019 6
Mounting drives in the Master Caddy II
If you choose to use your own disks instead of a pre-built AtomX SSDmini,
follow this procedure to install it in the provided Master Caddy II.
Insert the disk into the caddy, and secure with four screws. These screws
shouldbetightenedsothescrewheadsareushwiththecasingofthe
caddy. The caddy is light and the disk just needs to be held securely.
Don’t over-tighten the screws. There are no connections to make because
sliding the Master Caddy II into the Shogun 7 or the docking station makes
all the connections for you.
The Master Caddy can’t be inserted the wrong way round. Always make
sure that the disk connector faces the slot in the Shogun 7. Push the Master
Caddy II into place, but never force the disk just in case something isn’t
set up or aligned properly.
There is very little that can cause problems and the most likely thing is

SSDs and spinning disks are very sensitive to damage from
static electricity. Please observe all the usual precautions
when handling them. DO NOT touch the exposed SATA connector
as static electricity may be harmful to your disk.
Master Caddy II drives are backwards compatible with previous
Atomos recorders, however Master Caddy 1 is not forward
compatible with the Shogun 7 due to the compact latch design.
