Installing the Controller Installing the Controller To install the controller in the system cabinet: 1 Shut down your computer and disconnect the power cord. 2 Open the computer cabinet and identify an unused PCI slot. 3 If your computer accepts low-profile brackets only, install the low-profile bracket supplied with your kit. 4 Identify an unused PCI slot and remove the slot cover, as illustrated below. 5 Install the controller in the PCI slot and secure the controller bracket to the host system cabinet. 6 If you have not already installed your Serial ATA hard drives, do so now. 7 Use the cables supplied with your kit to connect your controller to the Serial ATA hard drives. The connectors at each end of a cable are the identical; therefore, it does not matter which end you connect to your controller or hard drive. Also, the connectors are keyed so that they only fit the connector in one direction. Do not try to force a cable on to the controller or a drive. If the connector does not slide on easily, try reversing it. 8 Close the computer cabinet and re-attach the power cord. 2-2
