PE3M Small Form Factor PC
Upgrading the System Hardware
Page 30
Re-install the Drive Baseplate into the chassis taking care not to trap any of the wiring, and secure using
the two M3 x 6mm screws removed earlier. Check that the drive door is clear of the chassis and tighten
the screws.
Connect the free 3½" drive connector from the power supply unit to the 4-pin connector on the CD/DVD
Interface PCB.
Connect the 40-way secondary IDE ribbon cable to the 40-pin connector on the CD/DVD Interface PCB.
Note the pin 1 identifiers. Connect the other end to the Secondary IDE connector on the motherboard.
Take care with the routing of the ribbon cable. It is important that it does not restrict the airflow across
the heatsink on the motherboard.
Ensure that the CD/DVD IDE cable will not foul the PCI card.
Replace the AGP/PCI Riser card sub-chassis. Take care lining up the two riser cards into their sockets,
and apply pressure evenly to fully seat the cards in the motherboard. This may require a little practise if
both expansion cards are fitted.
Secure the sub-chassis using the countersunk-head M3 fixing screws removed earlier.
Replace the top cover.
Power up the unit. As the unit boots up, the BIOS will detect the new drive.
If any software is required, now is the point at which to load it. Follow the instructions supplied with the
software.
