If it is not already attached, attach the connector on the flat cable to the
connector on the tape controller board. (It is easier to connect this
cable before installing the board.) The connector is marked “This Side
Up Or To The Left, ” or has a key to prevent it from being attached
incorrectly. Attach it as specified.
Route and fold the cable carefully so that it will not interfere with
the cover.
The tape controller should be installed in the closest available expansion
slot to the tape drive. This will be the rightmost available slot on
desktop configurations and the frontmost available slot on floor models.
Follow the general instructions for installing expansion boards given in
the section
General Installation Instructions, in this chapter.

The wide gray cable with two connectors attached near the back of the

control cable. Attach the connector to the matching connector on the
hard disk.
The yellowish-green cable with two connectors attached near the middle
of the disk controller board is the floppy control and data cable. Attach
the end connector to the matching connector on the floppy disk drive.
Note
Route and fold the cables carefully so that they will not interfere with
the cover.
