Most data cable connectors are keyed to fit only one way. If your
connector is not keyed, make sure the cable’s colored edge is aligned with
both PIN-1 on the CD-Writer Plus drive and PIN-1 on the IDE controller.
If the cable is attached incorrectly, your computer may not boot up.

either side of the IDE connector.
