Chapter 3: Installing the A2091-40/A2091
WARNING: Commodore will not be responsible for any injury or damage
resulting from improper installation. Such improper installation will also void
the warranties on the A2091-40/A2091 and the Amiga 2000. Read this manual
before attempting to Install the A2091. Turn the computer off and unplug the
power cord before proceeding. Installing the A2091 with the power on could
cause personal injury to yourself and damage to the equipment. Make sure
that nothing is attached to the computer. Disconnect all peripherals and power
cords, and put them aside.
Most hard disk failures occur because of improper handling: never subject a
hard disk to electrical or physical shock.
Although you can install multiple A2091 controller cards in your Amiga, you
may only have one card-mounted 3.5" hard disk. A second card-mounted hard
disk, connected to the card's power connector, will damage the Amiga and
void the warranties on the Amiga and the A2091-40/A2091.
Unpack the A2091 and make sure you have all the required parts.
