When you replace the carrier and reconnect the drive cables
Attach additional SCSI drives (1" or 1.6" high) to the two flat drive
carriers by screwing them into position from the bottom.
Position the hard disk drive
on the drive carrier so that
the ribbon cable connector
and the power cord connector
are accessible. Screw the drive
into position with the four screws
supplied with the drive.
If your computer came with a SCSI hard disk drive installed in
drive position 1, and you are installing a SCSI hard disk drive
in drive position 2 or 3, put the ribbon cable on top of the drives.
You can tape the ribbon cable to the tops of the drives with
double-stick foam tape to make the cable lie flat.

The ribbon cable may attach to a different position on
the PCI SCSI card, depending on which card you have.
Make sure all of the power
cord and ribbon cable
connectors are firmly attached
to all of the drives and to the
PCI SCSI card.
