a. Slide the receiving frame into an open 5.25-inch bay.

corresponding SAS or SATA port on the computer’s motherboard.

d. Attach a SATA power connector from your computer to the SATA power port on the rear of the

receiving frame. If no SATA power connectors are available, attach the included Molex-to-SATA

adapter cable to a Molex power plug. Then plug the SATA end of the adapter cable into the rear of

the receiving frame.

tions.
