I recently (today) purchased a Maxtor xt4380s hard disk, and I was hoping that I could get some information over the net on what I need to do to install it in my next. I have a 50 wire ribbon cable with the appropriate connectors, and I looked inside the next and saw that the power cable is already there ready to be hooked up. There are however 14 jumpers on the bottom of the hard drive, and an 8 or 10 pin connector between the power and the 50 pin. Does that have to be hooked up? I also was looking for tips on how to physically mount the drive in the case. Screws, getting the front plate off, etc. Thanks a million. Robert >From: brian@lighthouse.com (Brian Douglas Skinner)
