Connecting the hard disk drive cables

After you replace the bracket, you need to connect the cables to

the hard disk drive. Follow these steps:

1. Locate one of the IDE device cables that are connected to

the IDE interfaces on the system board. They are flat cables

with a system board connector on one end and two IDE

device connectors on the other end. A red wire runs down
one side of the cable. (See “Locating System Board
Components” in Chapter 4 to find the primary and
secondary IDE interfaces on the system board.)

Use the primary IDE interface for your boot drive and your
second hard disk drive; use the secondary IDE interface to

connect IDE CD-ROM drives, other IDE devices, or your
third and fourth drives. You cannot connect a CD-ROM
drive and hard disk drive to the same interface.
