Section 3. Installing the PX-760SA Internal SATA Drive
7. If not already connected, attach the other end of the 7-pin SATA
interface cable to the Serial ATA connector on the computer
motherboard (or on a PCI board, if that is how the Serial ATA
interface is provided in your computer). When connecting the Serial
ATA cable, note that cable connectors are keyed, and will fit only
one way. For example, the initials "SATA" on the cable connector
should be up.
8. Connect a power cable from the computer to the power connector of
the drive. In most computers, you will find free power connectors
that are ready for your use.
If your computer is equipped with 15-pin SATA power cables,
you can connect a power cable directly to the PX-760SA drive.
If your computer's power cables have only 4-pin power
connectors, use the 4-pin SATA power cable adapter that came
with your PX-760SA drive.
CAUTION: The power connector on the cable and the receptacle on
the drive are keyed. Do not force the power connector into the drive,
or the drive and/or the computer could be damaged.
9. Mount the PX-760SA drive in the computer using the four screws
that were supplied with your drive. Use only these screws.
CAUTION: Do not mount your drive in your computer using screws
other than those supplied by Plextor. You may damage the drive if
you insert screws that are too long or the wrong thread type.
This completes the installation procedure. Go on to the next section to
see how to use your PX-760SA drive.
