To replace a diskette drive:
1. Align the metal protrusions on the side of the drive with the grooves in the diskette drive bay and
slide the diskette drive into the bay until it stops.
2. Connect the power cable first, then the data cable (in that order) to the drive and the system board.
This sequence will allow any possible accumulated static electricity to discharge through the ground
circuit of the power connector before the drive data circuits are connected.
3. Connect the cables to the back of the diskette drive.
