Confirm that TX1 is powered off.
Connect the IDE drive to a Tableau IDE Adapter (TDA7-5) and connect the adapter
to the TX1 PCIe port. Note that IDE drive power does not come directly from the
TDA7-5 adapter. A separate power cable is required to connect the IDE drive power
interface to one of the source SATA/SAS drive power connections.
Connect any other drives required for the eventual duplication job and power on
TX1.
Note: TX1 will not allow any other jobs to be started or queued when an IDE
drive HPA/DCO/AMA disable job is in progress. This includes disallowing the
Shelve DCO feature for duplication jobs. This is because a system reset will be
required to redetect the drive after the DCO is disabled, which would
terminate any other jobs in progress.
After TX1 has booted to the Homescreen and the IDE drive is detected, navigate to
the Sources drive list and tap on the IDE drive tile to open its drive details screen.
Select the HPA/DCO/AMA Disable media utility, optionally enter case information,
and then tap the Remove HPA/DCO/AMAbutton to start the operation. The system
reset will occur immediately after TX1 issues the removal commands to the drive.
The log will reflect successful completion of the DCO disable operation after the
command has been issued to the drive, before the system reset has occurred. TX1
has no way of knowing if the command actually completed at the drive level. The
DCO state should be manually verified after the reboot is complete and before
subsequent jobs are started.
TX1 also provides the ability to “shelve” a DCO or AMA, which means disabling a
source drive DCO or AMA for the purposes of evidence duplication and then
putting the same DCO/AMA back after the job is complete. See “Duplicating”
on page 76 for more details on shelving a DCO.
