Attaching Floppy Drive Cables
Attaching floppy diskette drives are done in a similar manner to hard drives.
See the picture below for an example of a floppy cable. Most of the current
floppy drives on the market require that the cable be installed with the
colored stripe positioned next to the power connector. In most cases, there
will be a key pin on the cable which will force a proper connection of the
cable.
Attach first floppy drive
(drive
A: ) to the end of
the cable with the twist
in it. Drive
B: is usually
connected to the next
possible connector on
the cable (the second or
third connector after you
install Drive
A: ).
