Working with the Gateway Mid-Tower case
Drive cabling information
Your computer includes three different types of drive cables. Each drive cable
is clearly labeled, indicating cable-type and showing which end is connected
to the appropriate connector on the system board and which end is connected
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. Use the 80-conductor IDE cable to connect
DMA-100-compatible hard drives.
Adding or replacing drives
Use these procedures to replace 5.25-inch drives such as CD/DVD drives,
3.5-inch drives such as diskette drives, and hard drives.
To add or replace a CD/DVD or diskette drive:
1 Open the case by following the procedure “To open the Gateway
Mid-Tower case:” on page 49.
2 Return the case to its upright position.
Important The CD drive may be connected to the primary IDE
controller and the hard drive may be connected to the
secondary IDE controller. Drive assignments will reflect the
correct configuration from the factory.
