Installation
WARNING!
Computer parts can be severely damaged by static electricity. Be sure that you are properly
grounded before opening your computer case. StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static strap
when installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable, discharge yourself of any
static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several
seconds.
1. Turn your computer off and any peripherals connected to the computer (i.e. Printers, external hard
drives, etc.). Unplug the power cable from the rear of the power supply on the back of the computer and
disconnect all peripheral devices.
2. Remove the cover from the computer case. Refer to documentation for your computer system for details.
3. Remove the cover for a front panel 3.5in bay. Refer to documentation for your computer system for details.
4. Slide the internal card reader into the 3.5in bay from the outside. Once the mounting holes along the sides
of the card reader line up with the mounting holes for the 3.5in bay, fasten the card reader in place. Refer to
documentation for your computer system for details.
5. Connect the USB cable from the rear of the card reader to an available 9-pin USB header on the
motherboard. The connector is keyed to help prevent incorrect installation. See system or motherboard
documentation for specific details.
6. Place the cover back onto the computer case.
7. Insert the power cable into the socket on the power supply and reconnect all other connectors removed in
Step 1.
8. No driver installation is required, as the operating system should detect and install it automatically. Once
installed, memory cards may be inserted into the reader and used (only one card at a time supported).
