chassis using the mounting screws provided.
b. Attach a SATA data cable to the JP4 connector on the rear of the frame and attach the other end

c. If you plan to use a second drive, attach a SATA data cable to the JP5 connector on the rear of
the frame and attach the other end to the appropriate SATA host. JP5 connects to the top drive
in the carrier.
d. Attach a 4-pin floppy power connector to the rear of the receiving frame. The frame requires both

to eject the carrier from the frame. If the lock is engaged and the eject button will not release the
