If you are installing a drive that has its own con-
troller card, install the controller card in an
expansion slot.
See "Installing an Expansion Card" in Chapter 8.
Connect a DC power cable to the power input
connector on the back of the drive (see
Figure 9-9).
Connect the appropriate interface cable to the
interface connector on the back of the drive (see
Figure 9-9).
If your system came with an EIDE CD-ROM or tape
drive, use the spare connector on the existing inter-
face cable. Otherwise, use the EIDE interface cable
provided in the drive kit.
CAUTION: You must match the colored strip
on the cable with pin 1 on the drive's interface
connector to avoid possible damage to your
system.
