1. Shutdown and power off ThinkPad.
2. Remove ThinkPad from the Docking station.
3. Open the Docking station.
- Dock 1 - Remove the two screws on the bottom an remove cover.
- Dock 2 - Remove the two thumbscrews on the rear of the Dock and remove cover.
4. Locate your IDE Device (HDD or CD-ROM.)
5. Follow the cable from the device to where it plugs into the docking station.
6. Does the cable have a small 3" cable with a 2" circuit card in line before the connection on the dock?
