Cable Routing - HP d325 ST Hardware Reference Manual

Cable Routing

CAUTION: The drive data and power cables must be kept clear of the power supply and the
power supply fan to avoid damage or restrict air flow.
Follow these guidelines when routing the cables in the computer:
1. Route the optical drive audio cable
down, alongside of the drive cage to the floor of the chassis. Route this cable
behind the hard drive data cable. Keep the cable clear of the power supply fan.
2. Route the optical drive power cable
floor of the chassis. Keep the cable clear of the power supply fan.
3. Fold the diskette drive flat-ribbon data cable
Route the cable up high on the drive cage (near the cable connectors), then
folding again to lay beneath the optical drive data cable. Be sure the diskette
drive cable does not rest on the power supply and does not interfere with the
power supply fan.
4. Attach the cable clip
power cable. Keep this cable away from the power supply fan.
