for cable select, jumper the two pins nearest the green PWB..
(of pins 1,2,3 & 4)
thus:
_ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
please take note of the "key" position..
the drive address pins are the foru at the left end..
the "_" indicates the pair to short for cable select.. :-)

yes, you can short the pins on the connector..
note that those connectors are not indestructible, therefore be careful
happy tinkering.. :-)
