stripe
Note: The ribbon cable connectors are keyed so that they
can only be installed correctly on the device con-
nector. If the connector is not keyed, make sure that
you match the pin-1 side of the cable connector with
the pin-1 side of the device connector. Each con-
nector has the pin-1 side clearly marked. The pin-1
side of each ribbon cable is always marked with a
colored stripe on the cable.
3. Plug an IDE cable connector into the hard disk drive
IDE connector (B). It doesn't matter which connector
on the cable you use.
4. Plug a power cable from the case power supply into
the power connector on the hard disk drive (C).
When you first start up your system, the BIOS should auto-
matically detect your hard disk drive. If it doesn't, enter the
Setup Utility and use the IDE Hard Disk Auto Detect feature to
configure the hard disk drive that you have installed. See IDE
HDD Auto-Detection on page 41 for more information.
