To locate the IDE connector 1 (IDE1) on the system board, see

On the small desktop computer, if your computer has a hard-drive
shroud, replace the shroud by inserting the two tabs on the bottom
into the holes in the computer and snapping the top into place.
(Operating the computer without a hard-drive shroud does not affect
its performance.)
