Installing a 3.5” IDE hard drive

The Z USB3.0 /  eSATA combo drive enclosure comes with an IDE to 
SATA converter.

Note: It is required to set up the IDE hard drive you are connecting to 
the converter as a MASTER device.

1.

Locate the 40-pin IDE connector of your IDE drive.

2.

Connect the converter board to the IDE connector of the hard drive.

3.

Using the provided Y-power cable, connect the 4-pin Molex 
connector to the power connector on the hard drive. This will 
provide power to the hard drive.

4.

At the other end of the Y-power cable is the 4-pin floppy power connector 
which you connect to the converter. Now connect the SATA cable to the 
SATA port on the converter.

5.

Disconnect the SATA board from the drive enclosure. Then connect the 
SATA cable to the SATA port on the IDE to SATA converter

Step 3

Use the enclosed screws to secure the hard drive to the tray.
