That is a nice amalgam of 'nearly' and 'merely' (*-)#
Yes you can, observing the necessary slave/master jumper - presumably
slave as I guess you have a hard disk as master. Cable select is *not*
the one for Qubide - not nearly modern enough for that.

*not* earth. Do you not have a manual - essential really for use.
It normally goes on the expansion (J1) connector three from the back on
the top row. That is a good place for it, even though Aurora has a
jumper to replace it. Do *not* simply cut it off as a lot do. If you
are using the Aurora jumper, then tape over the end.
