REPLACING THE AIR DEFLECTOR AND DISK CABLES
This task is required only if you are installing a 6386/33 WGS.
1. Slide the air deflector into place.
2. Connect the hard disk data cable (the wide gray cable with two connectors — one on the end and one
a few inches from the end) to the disk I/O controller board.
Attach either the end- or the mid-cable connector (whichever fits better between the controller and
disk drive) to the matching connector on the disk I/O controller board. Ensure there are no twists in
the cable between the controller and the drive. If the cable is twisted, the disk will not be recognized
when you reboot the system.
3. Connect the hard disk control cable (the narrow gray cable) to the hard disk.
Attach the end connector on this cable to the matching connector on the hard disk.
4. Connect the floppy control and data cable (another two-connector, wide gray cable that is connected
near the bottom of the disk controller) to the floppy drive.
Attach the end connector (not the mid connector) to the matching connector on the floppy disk drive.
5. Route and fold the cables so that they are not in the way when you replace the computer cover.
