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 the System Board Components”
in Chapter 3 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.
2.
Identify the IDE device connector on the IDE device cable
that you will use.
3.
Locate pin 1 on the drive connector. If you do not see it on
the connector casing and you did not locate it before you
replaced the drive bracket, you may have to remove the
drive and turn it over to check the circuit board.
