24 Replacing and Adding Internal Devices
Drive cabling information
The system includes three different types of drive cables. Each drive cable is
clearly labeled, indicating the cable type and showing which end to connect
to the appropriate connector on the system board and which end to connect
to the drive.
Use the diskette drive connector cable to connect the diskette drive.
Use the standard IDE connector cable to connect the CD drive.
Use the SCSI LVD cable to connect the hot-plug backplane to the
integrated SCSI controller on the system board.
Replacing the diskette drive
The diskette drive is immediately below the control panel.
To replace the diskette drive:
1 Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord and all other external
peripheral devices.
2 Open the case. (See Opening the case on page 18 and Preventing static
electricity discharge on page 17.)
3 Remove the power and data cables from the back of the drive, noting
their locations and orientations. (You will reconnect these cables after you
install the new drive.)
