MAXTOR SERIAL ATA HARD DRIVE INSTALLATION GUIDE
Mount the Hard Drive
Before mounting the hard drive in your system, determine whether you are installing the hard drive in a
3.5-inch or 5.25-inch device bay. If you are unable to locate an available device bay, consult your system
manual or system manufacturer.
3.5-inch Device Bay Installation
Many systems have an available 3.5-inch bay located adjacent to the floppy drive.
–Mount the hard drive in the 3.5-inch bay using the screws provided. See Figure 4.
Mounting
Screws
Some systems may not have
enough room to plug in the
cables after the hard drive is
mounted. You may need to
attach the SATA and power
supply cables first.
