Next, connect your IDE cables (if you’re using IDE hard drives).
Figure 3
INSTALL
The colored stripe on the cable should face toward the top of your chassis, or toward the big white B printed on the motherboard.
In Figure 3 you can see how the IDE cables should look when they are connected to your hard drive. Notice how Pin 1 (denoted by a red stripe) is connected so that it is next to the power connector of the drive. In most cases, this is the proper way of connecting your IDE cable to the hard drive. Figure 4 shows the IDE cable properly connected to the motherboard.
Contact your hard disk drive manufacturer or documentation for more information.
