Installation

WARNING! Hard drives and storage enclosures require careful handling,

especially when being transported. If you are not careful with your hard disk,

lost data may result. Always handle your hard drive and storage device with

caution. Be sure that you are properly grounded by wearing an anti-static

strap when handling computer components or discharge yourself of any

static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such

as the computer case) for several seconds.

Hardware Installation

1. Connect the external power adapter from the hard drive dock to a power outlet.

2. Insert a 2.5” or 3.5” SATA hard drive into the top-loading drive bay closest to the

front of the dock. Make sure that the SATA connectors on the hard drive are facing

the same corner of the drive bay that has the 2.5in cutout in the door. The label on

the hard drive should face the front of the hard drive dock.

3. If using a 3.5in IDE hard drive, connect the included 40-pin IDE ribbon cable to the

IDE connector on the rear of the dock. If using a 2.5in IDE hard drive, connect the 40

to 44-pin IDE cable to the rear of the dock.

4. Connect the included LP4 Molex power cable into the LP4 connector on the rear of

the dock. If using the 40 to 44-pin cable, connect the built-in LP4 connector to the

connector on the rear of the dock.

5. Connect the IDE hard drive to the ribbon cable and LP4 Molex connector (3.5in

only). Make sure all of the cables are securely connected.

6. Insert the IDE hard drive into the top-loading drive bay (closest to rear connectors).
