Chapter 4     Install 3rd Party PCI Cards 

Once the hard drive brackets have been removed, mount your hard 
drive(s) to the hard drive bracket as shown. You have two (2) rows of 
mounting holes in each mounting bracket. This allows you to mount two 
hard drives with each hard drive bracket.  

 

Next, thread the hard drive ribbon cable over the metal bracket that the 
backplane is mounted on as shown below.
