PCM-3116PC/R PCMCIA (ATA) to IDE card (rear- mounted)
1 Turn off your computer.
2 Remove the case from your computer. Some computer cases
have a one piece design that requires the removal of screws on
the rear of your computer. ATX cases can be opened by first
removing the front plate and then unscrewing screws to remove
the side panels. If you require further information about your
computer, please consult your computer’s documentation.
3 Insert the PCM-3116PC/R PCMCIA (ATA) to IDE card into a free
ISA slot on your computer’s mainboard. Screw in a single screw
on the card’s backplate to secure the card firmly in the ISA slot.
4 Connect a 40-pin IDE cable from the ATA to IDE drive’s IDE
connector and then to the IDE connector on the mainboard.
Make sure that the cable’s red edge is connected to pin 1 on
each of the connectors.
5 Connect a power cable from your computer’s power supply to
the power connector on the ATA to IDE drive. Owing to the
shape of the cable and connector, it is impossible to plug in this
cable incorrectly.
6 Replace the case on your computer.
