Install The Escalade Ata Raid Controller In The Computer - 3Ware 7000-2 - Escalade RAID Controller User Manual

Note:
133 drives require 40-pin, 80-conductor ribbon
cables. These cables have color coded ends. For opti-
mum performance, the blue end must be connected to the
ATA RAID Controller and the black end must be con-
nected to the hard drive.
2 One edge of each interface cable should have a colored (usually
red) line denoting the conductor to Pin 1. Align the ATA RAID
Controller so that the colored line is toward the top edge of the
controller. Mate the connectors carefully without bending any
pins.
3 Install the other connectors in the same manner.
