Insert a drive into the converter
Warning! Drives should be handled carefully, especially when they're
transported. If you're not careful with your drives, you may lose data
as a result. Always handle storage devices with caution. Make sure
that you're properly grounded by wearing an anti-static strap when
you install any computer component. If an anti-static strap isn't
available, touch a large, grounded metal surface for several seconds
to discharge any built-up static electricity.
1. Push in on the side of the Front button and lift the Front door
away from the converter.
2. Gently slide the SATA connector on the drive into the
corresponding connector on the converter.
Note: The connector on your drive is keyed so that it only fits in the
adapter one way.
3. If necessary, repeat steps 1 and 2 to install a second drive.
4. Push the Front door closed.
Install the converter in a computer
1. Turn off the computer that you want to install the converter into.
2. Open your computer case. For more information about how to
do this properly, consult the documentation that came with your
computer system.
3. Insert the converter into the 3.5 in. drive slot in your computer.
4. Insert two of the mounting screws through the side of the drive
slot and into the side of the converter.
5. Insert the remaining two mounting screws through the other side
of the drive slot and the converter.
