Internal Peripheral Cabling
The following sections show EIDE and SCSI cable routings and connections to internal peripheral
devices, and depicts standard and optional cables used in the system. For detailed information and
the location of EIDE and SCSI connectors on the system board, see the System Board Manual.
CAUTION
When handling cables, flex them as little as possible. Ensure that cables do not
contact sharp metal surfaces or become excessively bent or twisted. In particular,
SCSI cables should not have any creased bends.
EIDE Cabling
The installed EIDE cable connects the primary EIDE channel to the CD-ROM drive and to another
front-access peripheral device. Another EIDE cable, which can connect the secondary EIDE
channel to two front-access peripheral devices, is provided with the system but is not installed.
