Choose a connector for each SCSI drive you have installed.

Align the tab on the connector with the notch in the drive

socket. Make sure the holes fit over all the pins, and then

push in the connector.

If you are installing up to four SCSI drives, be sure to use P7

for the last drive on the bus. Then proceed to “Installing the

SCSI power cables” on page 7-25.

If you are installing five or six SCSI drives, continue with the

next step.

There is a cutout beneath the external bays and above drive

bay 4, as shown in the previous illustration. Insert the

section of the cable that contains connectors P6 and P7

through this cutout. Make sure the red stripe on the cable

faces the outside of the computer and that connectors P6

and P7 are behind the external drive bays.

Note

If you have difficulty routing the cable beneath the

external drive bays, you may want to remove the device

installed in the lowest bay before inserting the cable into

the cutout. See “Removing a Drive from an External

Bay” on page 7-8 for instructions.

Connect P6 or P7 of the SCSI ribbon cable to the SCSI device

that you installed in either the IDE drive bay or the external

drive bay. Be sure to connect P7 of the SCSI ribbon cable to

your last SCSI device.

Now follow the instructions in the next section to connect the

power cables.
