To connect ATA drives to the Adaptec ATA RAID 1200A card,
follow these steps:
1
Connect the blue connector of an ATA/100 cable to the channel
1 connector on the controller card as shown in
Figure 2-6
, being
careful to match pin 1 of the cable to pin 1 of the connector. The
cables and connectors are keyed. If the cable does not slide
easily into the connector, do not force it. Instead, reverse the
cable.

The stripe along the edge of the cable indicates Pin #1.
If the cable does not slide easily into the connector, reverse
the cable.
