side of the new drive.

If you are installing a controller card, configure and install it in an expansion slot
now (refer to “
“PCI Expansion Card Upgrades” in Chapter 2 for instructions).
Install the card as close as possible to the drive cage.

cables can restrict airflow, cause cooling problems, and interfere with
removing and replacing the computer cover. If you must route cables over
cards, be extremely cautious when removing and replacing the computer
cover.

Connect a DC power cable to the drive as described earlier in “Connecting Drive
Cables.”
NOTICE: Match the colored strip on the cable with pin 1 on the interface

Attach the appropriate interface cable to the drive. If you installed a controller
card in step 7, attach the other end of the interface cable to the controller card
rather than the system board.
10. Replace the bezel.
11. Make sure that no cable connections were loosened during the procedure.

computer cover.

OM drive, refer
to the drive's documentation for driver installation instructions.
