SCSI Hard Drive Triage

SCSI Hard Drive sorting is done in Advanced Test.

Start
copied from ps triage, not done yet.

Create a temporary place for two piles:
 * Keep
 * Recycle

Follow the triage flow chart below to determine which pile to put the power supply in. You will need to test some power supplies to complete this task.

Testing Power Supplies
Use a standard ATX power supply tester for a 20 pin ATX power supply. If you have a 24 pin ATX power supply, send it to advanced testing instead.

For each power supply that needs to be tested, do these things:


 * 1) Plug each power supply into outlet
 * 2) If there is a rear power supply switch, make sure it is turned on.
 * 3) Connect the tester to the 20 pin ATX connector
 * 4) * Check lights (all lights on is good, but it is also OK if the -5V light is off)
 * 5) Connect the tester to the 4 pin ATX connector
 * 6) * Check to see if the +12V light is on

What to do when done, where to put them

 * Keepers
 * Mark them small smiley face in a corner on the side where the wires come out with a sharpie
 * Take them to the warehouse and put them in the POWER SUPPLIES TO KEEP location


 * Recycle
 * Mark them LARGE frowny face somewhere with a sharpie
 * Take them to the warehouse and put them in the POWER SUPPLIES TO RECYCLE location
