Step 6. Connecting the Drive and the Cables
Connect the drive to an available 40-pin connector on the IDE
interface cable. The interface cable can have up to three connectors.
For the best signal quality when you are connecting only one device
on the IDE cable, connect one end of the cable to the IDE port and
connect the device to the connector on the other end of the cable. Do
not use the middle connector.
If you are connecting two devices on the IDE cable, connect one end
of the cable to the IDE port and connect the Master and Slave devices
to the remaining connectors on the other end. Many computers have
two cables for attaching up to four ATA devices. For best
performance, attach fast devices (hard disk drives) on one cable and
slower devices (CD-ROM drives, tape drives or removable media
drives) on the second cable. If you must move a slower device to a
second cable, see your computer manual for information on correctly
configuring the device.
Connect an available DC power-cable connector to the four-pin DC
power connector on the Zip IDE drive, as shown.
Pin 40
Pin 1
The cable connector is keyed and fits only one way. Be sure that the
cables will not be pinched or crowded by the computer cover and that
all other cable and power connections are secure.
Step 7. Completing the Installation of the Drive
To complete the installation of the drive:
1. Verify that the drive is securely mounted and the cables are
firmly attached.
2. Verify that the cables do not interfere with the computer cover
and do not block the power-supply fan blades or air-flow paths.
3. Reinstall the computer cover.
