Maximum Allowable Drive Sizes Types of cables: Drives connect to the server with cables. Each cable connector is designed to fit a corresponding connector on a drive. Three types of internal cables connect to the drives in the server: A four-wire power cable connects to each drive. A flat-ribbon signal cable connects to IDE devices. - One flat-ribbon cable connects the internal diskette drive. The connector on one end of this cable attaches to the system board. The primary diskette drive installed in the server (usually known as drive A) is attached to the connector on the other end of this cable. Note The primary diskette drive must always be attached to the drive connector on the end of this cable. - A second flat-ribbon cable connects the CD-ROM drive. This cable has two drive connectors. A third connector attaches to the system board. The CD-ROM drive that comes with the server is attached to the connector on the end of this cable. Another cable connects internal SCSI devices. This SCSI cable has two connectors that connect to SCSI devices: - One to the backplane of the DASD hot-swap enclosure Netfinity 5000 - Type 8659 65
