16.Connect a power cable to the back of the drive (see Figure 5-23).

Note: For 5 1/4-inch devices power cables are provided in the chassis for removable 5 1/4-inch media drives (including the CD-ROM that is factory- installed). These power cables are interchangeable for 5 1/4-inch devices only; you can connect any one of them to any device you install in the 5 1/4-inch media bays. The connectors are keyed and can be inserted in only one way.

For 3 1/2-inch diskette drives power cables are provided in the chassis (including the diskette drive that is factory-installed). The connectors are keyed and can be inserted in only one way.

17.Connect the ribbon data cable (Figure 5-23) to the device; the connector is keyed and can be inserted only one way.

Note: For the 5 1/4-inch media devices be certain that you are using the 50-pin SCSI data cable. This cable comes from the system board to the removable media bays and ends at the CD-ROM reader in bay A. Do not confuse this cable with the 34-pin diskette drive cable which begins on the system board and ends at the diskette drive in bay E.
