7. Connect one of the unused connectors on the SCSI cable to the wide
connector on the drive (see the illustration below).
Find the internal SCSI cable inside the computer (it is the wide flat ribbon
cable connected to the hard drive. The internal SCSI cable should have one
or two unused connectors on it. You may have to detach and re-attach the
SCSI connectors on one or more other drives to get connectors where you
need them. Remember, this is SCSI, so the ends (but no other devices) must
be terminated. See Ensuring proper termination on page 18 for details.
Note: There is a key in the middle of the top of the SCSI connector and a
notch in the cable connector which matches the key, to ensure that the
cable is not plugged in upside down. If the cable resists being plugged in,
check to make sure the key and slot are mating correctly.

8. Find an unused 4-pin power cable in the set of cables coming from
the power supply (the power supply is in the right rear of the
computer, on the bottom) and connect that cable to the rear of the
drive, being careful to match the beveled corners of the plug to
those of the socket (see the illustration above).
