Drive cabling information
Your system includes three different types of drive cables and possibly one
additional cable, if required for the options ordered. Each drive cable is clearly
labeled, indicating the cable type and showing which end to connect to the
appropriate connector on the system board and which end to connect to the
drive.
■
Use the diskette drive connector cable to connect the diskette drive.
■
Use the standard IDE connector cable to connect IDE devices such as
CD drives and standard IDE hard drives. The cable for the CD drive is
capable of cable select.
■
Use the SCSI LVD cable (2 connectors) to connect the hot-plug backplane
to the integrated SCSI controller on the system board or to an add-on
SCSI controller card.
■
Use the SCSI LVD cable (5 connectors with built-in terminator) to connect
optional SCSI devices to the integrated SCSI controller on the system
board or to an add-on SCSI controller card. (This cable is optional.)
Replacing the diskette drive
The diskette drive is near the bottom of the stack of drive bays.
To replace the diskette drive:
1
Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord, modem cord (if
installed), and all external peripheral devices.
2
Observe all safety and static electricity precautions. (See “Preventing static
electricity discharge” on page 22.)
3
Remove the bezel. (See “Removing the bezel” on page 25.)
4
Remove the left side cover panel. (See “Removing the side cover panel”
on page 26.)
5
Locate the 3.5-inch diskette drive.
6
Remove the power and data cables from the back of the drive, noting
their locations and orientations (you will reconnect these cables after you
install the new drive).
