In regards to the caps, the clock cap should be removed (excluding. v1.6 consoles) Clock cap is located within a cluster of caps on the bottom left of the MB.

I finally found some time to install the above 2Tb Seagate drive and adapter I bought... iND-BIOS 5004.67 was used and prepared the drive with my auto-installer...
