Attaching cables and mounting the drive
1. If you are attaching an ATA (IDE) interface cable to a single
drive, attach one end of the cable to the interface connector
on your motherboard. Most computers provide two IDE con-
nectors, primary and secondary, usually labeled as
IDE
or
HDD
on your motherboard. See your computer manual for
connector locations.
Note. If you are running Ultra DMA mode 3 or 4, you must use a
special 40-pin 80-conductor cable or these modes will not
be enabled. For information on how to obtain this cable,
contact your dealer.
Figure 2. Attaching the cables
2. Thread the interface cable through the drive bay and attach
the connector at the end of the interface cable to your new
drive (the maximum ATA cable length is 18 inches (457 mm)
long).
