orientation of the cable connector can be found by matching the key notch on one side of the cable connector with

ATA drives and wish to use one as a boot drive, plug the black cable connector into the boot drive and the gray
connector into the other drive. If neither drive will be used as a boot drive, either the gray or black connector can be
used. See Figure 8 below.
