17Disconnect the cables from the hard disk drive in the cage:
IMPORTANT: Recording the plug locations when there are multiple drives helps ensure you correctly replace the connections.
The plugs on the cables are keyed and can be inserted only when aligned properly with the connector on the drive.
In addition, some plugs have a latch that must be pressed or squeezed to release the plug while pulling it from the connector.
For plugs without a latch, pull the plug straight out from the connector.
