first hard disk drive, this cable came in the box with your

computer. If you are installing a second drive, the cable is

attached to your internal hard disk drive.

Align the available cable connector with the drive socket so the

row in the connector with the blocked hole lines up with

the row in the socket with the missing pin, as shown below.

Then push in the connector.

Note

If you are installing your first IDE hard disk drive, you

must also connect the hard disk drive cable connector to

the appropriate connector on the main system board.

First follow the instructions in Chapter 4 to remove the

subassembly. Then connect the cable to the main system

board connector. (This connector, labelled IDE, is located

next to the diskette drive connector.) Next, follow the

steps in Chapter 4 to replace the subassembly.

13. Replace the computer’s front panel and cover as described in
