Step 3. Attaching the cables
1. Locate the IDE

and power
3
connectors using the illustration
of the bottom view of the tape drive.
The tape drive connectors are:
1
IDE connector
2
IDE connector - pin 1
3
Power connector
2. Locate the appropriate IDE cable and spare connector and attach
it to the tape drive
1
. Use a 40-pin ribbon cable to connect the
tape drive on the rear of the drive. The connector is keyed and
will fit only one way. Do not force it. If it does not attach
easily, turn the connector around and try it again. Ensure that
line 1 of the IDE cable (usually color coded) aligns with pin 1
2
of the IDE connector.
3. Locate an unused power connector coming from the computer
power supply. If all power cables are in use, purchase a dc
Y-connector at your computer dealer or electronics store. Locate
an available power cable and connect it to the four-pin power
connector on the tape drive
3
. The cable connector is keyed
and will fit properly only one way.
Step 4. Mounting the drive
1. Locate an available bay or space in your computer to mount the
tape drive. The drive can be mounted in either a horizontal or
vertical position. The drive fits in a 3.5-inch (1-inch high)
standard bay. You can also mount the drive in a 5.25-inch
(1.6-inch high) bay using the 5.25-inch mounting kit provided.
When you attach the brackets to the sides of the 3.5-inch tape
drive, you increase the width and height of the drive. The
instructions for using the 5.25-inch mounting kit are located on its
packaging. Use only those parts necessary for your particular
installation; some parts may not be required.
The following table lists the available bays for IBM PC
IntelliStation professional workstation and desktop PC models.
Some of these computer systems require an additional cosmetic
bezel (included) when installing a removable media device such
as a tape drive. Some workstations also might have a lockable
door covering the drive bays. If you are installing the tape drive
into one of these servers or workstations, you can use the
included recess bezel kit to install the tape drive. With the recess
bezel kit, the tape drive sits further back in the bay, so the tape
