Hard Drive Upgrade Install Guide

Install The New Hard Drive (continued)

The IDE cable that was disconnected from the old hard drive is shown here. The black connector on the end plugs into the master hard drive. The gray connector plugs into the slave hard drive. The way I am doing the upgrade, the old hard drive is still jumpered as the master and the new hard drive has been jumpered as the slave.

Now the drive cage can be reinstalled, the old hard drive and floppy drive connected to cables and power connectors as before, and the new hard drive connected to the gray IDE cable connector and the free 4-pin power connector. Click on the picture to see it enlarged.
