9.    Attach the IDE cable.  

• 

If you have a 40-pin 40-conductor cable, 
attach the system connector of the

 

cable to 

the IDE port on the

 

motherboard or controller 

card. The pin 1 side of the IDE cable is 
marked with a stripe. The connector can only 
be inserted one way. 

• 

If you have a 40-pin 80-conductor cable, 
attach the drive to the appropriate color-
coded connector.  Forty-pin 80-conductor 
cables are color-coded black for Master, gray 
for Slave, and blue for system connectors.  

10.  Attach the power supply cable to the drive. Match 

the connector bevels.   

11.  Mount the drive securely.   
12.  Verify all attachments.   
13.  Replace the computer cover. 
14.  Plug in the computer. 
15.  Turn on the computer. 
16.  Verify that the hard disk is recognized by the BIOS 

and is reporting the full capacity of the drive. 
Instructions for accessing your BIOS can be found 
in the computer system manual or in the mother-
board manufacturer documentation. If the drive is 
not recognized in the BIOS, set the BIOS options 
of your computer system to Auto Detection and 
LBA mode if available. Once the drive is 
recognized correctly in the BIOS, it is ready to be 
partitioned and formatted.  

 With the 160GB and 250GB model, you may encounter 
a BIOS limitation of 137GB.  Possible solutions for the 
137GB limitation include operating system patches, 3

additional information about the 137GB limitation and 
possible 3

drive before it installs the operating system.  For
