drive controller, install the adapter board. Again, make sure that you have set all
jumper straps on the adapter board to avoid addressing and signal conflicts.
3.4.1.1 Connecting the Motherboard and the Drive
1. Locate an available Serial ATA (SATA) port on your motherboard or on a SATA
PCI card and plug in one end of the SATA interface cable.
2. Locate the SATA port on the rear of the hard drive and plug in the SATA
interface cable as shown in Figure 3-9.
3. Secure the drive to the system chassis by using the mounting screws as shown in
Figure 3-9.
Note: If you have an existing installation of Windows 2000 or XP, you
must install a Windows driver for the SATA interface before
connecting the drive. Please see your installation guide for more
details on the process.
Note: This drive includes both a 4-pin legacy power connector and a
15-pin SATA power connector. These connectors cannot be
used at the same time, powering both connectors simul-
taneously will damage the drive.
Note: To ensure proper operation of your drive, do not use the jumper
pins to the left of the 4-pin power connector. If your drive comes
with a jumper, pre-installed, carefully remove it, see your instal-
lation guide for more details on this process. If your drive has a
single shrouded jumper pin, please note that the plastic shroud is
fixed in place. Do not attempt to remove it. See your installation
guide for more details.
