How do I install the optional hardware in my MX2424.
1. Turn off the power and unplug the MX-2424.
2. Remove the eight screws from the top cover and put them in a safe place.
3. Remove the cables attached to any installed drives.
4. Remove the four screws from the bottom of the unit that hold the drive
bracket in place. Lift the drive bracket out.
5. Unscrew and remove the front panel blank and save it.
6. Install the new option device into the drive bracket and replace the screws.
7. Re-install the drive bracket into the MX-2424 and replace the
screws on the bottom of the unit.
8. Be sure to set the SCSI ID of the new option device according to the
instructions provided with that device. The internal drive is preset to
SCSI ID 0. Termination must be disabled on the new option device
since the SCSI bus on the MX-2424 is already terminated. If installing
a DVD-RAM or tape drive connect the supplied 68-50 pin adapter.
9. Attach the power cables to the original drive and the new option device.
10. Attach the SCSI cable to the original drive and the new option device.
The SCSI cable is labeled “FIXED DISK” (this attaches to the internal
hard disk) and “BAY DISK” (this attaches to the new option device).
This cable already has a terminator attached that should not be removed.
11. Reinstall the top cover and screws.

Offer applies only to single-receipt qualifying purchases. Select manufacturers may require that only the manufacturer’s products qualify towards the minimum purchase amount needed to be eligible for promotional financing. Otherwise, an invoice that meets the minimum purchase amount and contains at least one qualifying manufacturer product is eligible for promotional financing. No interest will be charged on promo purchase balance, and equal monthly payments are required on promo purchase until it is paid in full. The payments equal the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next whole dollar. These payments may be higher than the payments that would be required if this purchase was a non-promo purchase. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to the prior months’ rounding. Regular account terms apply to non-promo purchases. New Accounts as of 07/31/2025: Purchase APR is 34.99%. Penalty APR is 39.99%. Min Interest Charge is $2. Existing cardholders: See your credit card agreement terms. Subject to credit approval.

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
