3 How to Install Accessories In Your PC

Installing Mass Storage Devices

5 Connect the power cable and the data cable to the rear of the drive.

The connectors are shaped to go in one way only.

6 Install any other accessories before replacing the cover. Reconnect

all cables and power cords.

Connecting an IDE
Device to a Data Cable

There are two different data cables for IDE devices. The first is marked
“HDD” next to the system board attachment and has two drive
connectors. The middle connector of this data cable must be connected
to the bootable or master hard disk drive. The second has only one drive
connector which is red and marked “CD-ROM” next to the system board
attachment.

Up to three IDE devices can be connected to the system board using
these data cables.

After Installing an IDE
Drive

After installing an IDE drive, you will need to run Setup to confirm that
the drive has been detected by the PC. Refer to “After Installing an IDE
Drive” on page 64.
