Replacing the Internal SCSI Data Cable

Visual markers have been placed on the internal cables to help you route the cables
through the metal cable clips properly. The markers are either tie-wrap cords or
colored tape affixed to each cable. When properly installed, the two tie-wraps on
each cable should straddle the metal cable clip that is closest to the system board.
For the SCSI data cable, the colored tape should be centered directly below that same
cable clip.
1. Route the SCSI data cable through the metal cable clips.
The taped portion of the SCSI data cable should be positioned directly beneath
the lower cable clip as shown in Figure 9–16.
