Drive Installation
To install the Zeus SATA SSD in a personal computer (PC) or host system:
Grounding Requirements
No special grounding circuitry is required. Pins S1, S4 and S7, serve as Ground signals on the Signal
Segment, and Pins P4, P5, P6, P10 and P12 serve as Ground signals on the Power Segment of the
SATA connector configuration. The signal and chassis grounds are not connected together in the
drive. The user should provide maximum surface contact area when connecting the drive to the
chassis ground to ensure minimal electromagnetic (EM) emissions.

Power down the computer and remove the access cover.
Position the SSD in an available drive bay or choose a suitable mounting loca-
tion.
Connect one end of an SATA cable to the SSD and the other end of the cable to
the SATA adapter on the host. The connector on the drive is keyed to ensure
that the signal and power connections to the drive are correctly oriented.
Secure the SSD within the drive bay or to the mounting surface using M3 UNC
machine screws. Apply sufficient torque to ensure that the drive is secure.
Note: Be aware of the depth of the drive’s mounting holes. The maximum penetration
depth of the drive’s mounting holes is indicated in Figure 10. You may mount the drive
using the side or top mounting holes. It is recommended that you secure the drive with
at least four screws. To avoid damaging the drive, consider the thickness of the
mounting surface when deciding the screw length to use.
Replace the access cover and power on the computer.
Electrostatic Discharge or ESD can seriously damage the
electronic components of the host system and solid state
drive. It is very important to discharge any static electricity
before you begin the installation procedure. You can touch an
unpainted, grounded metallic surface to discharge any static
charges that may be present on your body or clothing. As an
alternative, you can also use an ESD protective wrist strap.
You can minimize the possibility of damage due to ESD by
avoiding physical contact with the electronic components.
