Removal and Replacement Procedures— Small Form Factor (SFF) Chassis
■
Never bend a SATA data cable tighter than a 30 mm (1.18 in) radius.
■
Never crease a SATA data cable.
■
Do not rely on components like the drive cage, power supply, or computer cover to push
cables down into the chassis. Always position the cables to lay properly by themselves.
When removing the power supply power cables from the P1 or P3 connectors on the system
board, always follow these steps:
1. Squeeze on the top of the retaining latch attached to the cable end of the connector 1.
2. Grasp the cable end of the connector and pull it straight up 2.
CAUTION: Always pull the connector - NEVER pull on the cable. Pulling on the cable could damage the
Ä
cable and result in a failed power supply.
