11 For each drive you install, route one SATA data cable from the
server board or add-in card to the hard drive, with the right-angle
end of the SATA data cable connected to the server board or add-
in card SATA connector. See your server board documentation or
add-in card documentation for assistance in locating the SATA
connectors on the board or add-in card.

that leads from them to the component in the chassis. This
component is the air baffle that is referred to in the following
steps. The letters “C” and “D” point to the cutouts that are
referred to in the step below. The letter “E” is the tab at the top of
the air baffle.
13 Data cables for drives installed to the right of the air baffle must
be routed through the two cutouts in the top of the air baffle
(letters “C” and “D” in the figure) and under the tab (letter “E”).
The data cable for a drive installed to the left of the air baffle must
be routed through the rear cutout of the air baffle (letter “D”)
and under the tab (letter “E”). You may need to remove the air
baffle to route the cables underneath it. To see how to remove
and then install the air baffle, see “Removing and Installing the Air
Baffle. “
