" Hi! My name is Stephanie and I’m here on behalf of expertvillage.com. Please visit our web site at www.clickincomputer.com. The floppy drive instillation works in pretty well the same fashion, pin 1 again indicated, using the narrower cable. Now we’re going to plug into the floppy, again with the redline indicated towards pin-1, on a floppy drive it doesn’t really show it, but it’s on the backside, so it is the opposite direction of the CD-ROM drive. Another way that you can tell if it’s on right or wrong is whenever you power it on, it will have a green light that just stays on the floppy drive instead of going out. "
