instructions for installation are presented in this manual since the design
of computer cases varies. Refer to your computer’s manual whenever
in doubt about procedures.

devices. Follow these precautions for static electricity discharge:
• Discharge any static electricity buildup in your body by touching a
grounded metal surface such as the computer case, if plugged in.
• During installation procedures, avoid any contact with internal device
parts.
2. Unplug the power cord from the back of the computer.
3. Remove your computer’s cover.
4. Remove the computer’s front cover plate from the 5.25-inch drive bay
in which you plan to install your MANHATTAN Hard Drive Docking Kit.
5. Remove (separate) the drive case from the docking case by lifting the
handle and pulling it out.
6. Slide the docking case into the 5.25-inch drive bay.
7. Attach the SATA cable from the computer to the SATA connector on the
back of the docking case.
8. Attach an available 4-pin power cable from the system’s power supply
to the 4-pin connector on the back of the docking case. The power
connector is “D”-shaped to ensure proper orientation when making
the connection. (See image below.)

Mounting a Drive in the Drive Case
These steps are for installing a 3.5-inch
drive device in the drive case.
NOTE: A special adapter kit is required
in order to install a 2.5-inch drive.
1. Remove the drive case
cover by sliding it
toward the back of
the unit.
2. If you plan to install a drive that features removable media, carefully
punch out the center par t of the front panel.
IMPORTANT: If you are installing a new hard drive in the case, you
may need to congure the drive before you
install it. Refer to the drive manufacturer’s
documentation and congure the
drive as Master, Cable Select
or Slave depending on the
conguration of your
computer. After you
complete this
installation, you
may also need to
re-congure the
computer’s BIOS
setup to make the
drive functional in the system.

connector adapter.
4. Carefully position the drive inside the drive case
5. Secure the drive in place using the supplied mounting screws. Use
the mounting holes on the sides or bottom, depending on the design
of the drive.
