Removal and Replacement Procedures— Slim Tower (ST) Chassis
7.7 Cable Management
The Slim Tower chassis is a very compact computer and proper routing of the internal cables is
critical to the operation of the computer. Follow good cable management practices when
working inside the computer.
■
Keep cables away from major heat sources like the heatsink.
■
Do not jam cables on top of expansion cards or memory modules.Printed circuit cards like
these are not designed to take excessive pressure on them.
■
Keep cables clear of sliding parts like the drive cage to prevent their being cut when the drive
cage is being seated.
■
Keep cables clear of rotating parts like the power supply to prevent their being cut or
crimped when the power supply is lowered.
■
When folding a flat ribbon cable, never fold to a sharp crease. Sharp creases may damage the
wires.
■
Some flat ribbon cables come prefolded. Never change the folds on these cables.
■
Do not bend any cable sharply. A sharp bend can break the internal wires.
■
Never bend a SATA data cable tighter than a 30 mm (1.18 in) radius.
■
Never crease a SATA data cable.
■
Do not rely on components like the drive cage, power supply, or computer cover to push
cables down into the chassis. Always position the cables to lay properly by themselves.
