You can attach one enhanced Integrated Device Electronics (IDE) hard disk
drive to the PPC-A84's internal controller which uses a PCI local-bus
interface. The advanced IDE controller supports faster data transfer rates and
allows the IDE hard drive to exceed 528MB. The following are instructions
for installation:
1. Find the black HDD carrier, the 44-pin transfer connector and four
pieces of M3x4 screws, and two long screws for the 44-pin transfer connec-
tor in the accessory box.
2. Connect the transfer connector to 2.5" HDD, screw the two screws to fix
the transfer with the HDD.
3. Put the HDD inside the black carrier. Screw the 4 screws to fix the HDD
to carrier from two sides of the carrier.
4. Unscrew the two screws of the cover on the top side of PPC-A84
(See Fig.2-5). Open the cover.
5. Plug in the HDD carrier.
6. Close the cover and screw the two screws.
Note: Make sure the power source to the PPC-A84 has been
disconnected, before you plug in or remove the HDD drive.
