If you will have two hard disk drives in your system, perform
the procedures in steps 6 and 7 again. This time, however,

connect the connector at the end of the ribbon cable to the
horizontally mounted hard disk drive you just installed. (If
necessary, turn the subassembly upside down to make it

easier to connect the cable.)

8.

Looking at the subassembly, locate one of the power supply
cables that lead from the power supply (behind the
horizontal drive bays). The cables are labeled

P1, P2,

or P3

and have a clear plastic connector on one end. You can use

any of the three cables. As shown below, the end of the
connector has two notched comers.

The power supply socket on the back of the drive is next to

the ribbon cable connector. The socket also has two

notched comers, as shown below.

You must connect a power supply cable to each drive you

install in your system. If you removed a hard disk drive from

the vertical mounting position, connect the

power

supply

cable to this drive first. If you did not remove a hard disk

drive, connect the power supply cable

to

the drive

you just

installed in the lower horizontal drive bay.
