Caution. The cable and connector bond is delicate. Pulling the

cable to remove the connector may damage the cable.

Attach an interface connector to the drive. If your interface con-
nector has a key, it will plug into the drive only one way. Make
sure that you do not bend the pins when you attach the cable.

Attach an interface-connector to the hard-disc controller connec-
tor on the motherboard or host adapter (see your system user’s
guide or host adapter user’s guide to determine the location of
pin 1). Make sure that pin 1 is aligned with pin 1 on the drive.

Cable-select installation: If your computer uses cable-select for
connection, refer to its user’s guide to determine which interface
connector is used for the master and which is used for the slave.

2. Attach a power-supply cable to the drive.
