[edit | edit source]

Minuszerodegrees.net's cabling diagram for a single hard drive on the Fixed Disk and Diskette Drive Adapter that IBM supplied in the IBM 5170, using a flat (straight-through) control cable: the 20-pin data cable from J4 and the 34-pin control cable from J5 on the adapter, pin 1 of each cable connector to pin 1 of the drive connector, a terminator fitted on the drive, and the drive-select jumper in the first position (DS0 on a drive numbered DS0 to DS3, DS1 on a drive numbered DS1 to DS4).
