Need manual for 603NY 2nd hard drive module

Any idea where to download the manual / docs for the 603NY 2nd hdd module?
 
I've been searching the site and the manuals section for some time without luck  :(
 
I ask because it's not obvious which way the drive goes in and thus which way the cable connects.  If the drive goes in label up, then the cable doesn't quite allow the drive to fit in the space.  Yet if you turn the drive upside down, it fits fine in the space when connected.
 
It's too bad there's no clear indication or any filled holes in the cable to make sure you put it in the right way  :(

What model of computer are you talking about?  Use this link.
 
 
Find your model and number, then select service manual. Should show how to install a second HD.

Indeed, they put the keying on the drive for a reason; why not use a keyed cable? Anyway, in the 2nd drive module for the C-series the drive goes in with the circuit board up. Note that it doesn't seem to work with an unpartitioned drive; it won't be detected when hot-plugging it and it will show "unrecognized module in media bay" when you boot. Partition the drive in another system or in a USB case and it will work.
