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.

Re: [ql-users] Aurora CD Rom Drive / superHermes Question
Aha, I guess this could be relevant "The Aurora has been designed with SuperHermes in mind, so instead of the flying lead, you have to put a jumper ( wool or nylon? :-) on the two pins you will find right beside the ZX8302 chip. to the left of it and along the edge of the Aurora board. This jumper has the same function as the flying lead, so you do not have to use it any more" I guess that answers the hook question.

[ql-users] Aurora CD Rom Drive / superHermes Question
Belated Happy New Year to you all. Well, my Aurora finally arrived and I'm now in the process of putting it all back together. The first thing I've noticed is the CD Rom Drive has seen better days, the buttons are sunken ( which may be fixable ) but when i tried to insert a cd ( auto loader ). It wasn't hungry and decided to sink it's teeth into the once nice shiny disc so there is now an additional wide arc'd set of scratches, not a good start. however, whilst i haven't attached a monitor as yet ( no external SVGA connector but there does appear to be something that looks like one dangling loose on the inside ! ), There is a TTL connector so i shall use that. I hope to attach a PC monitor at some point so i can 'share' my monitor in work with my QL ( need a KVM switch for that ) don't tell the boss ! I do have a couple of question which I'm hoping someone will know he answer to. Can i mearly replace this CD drive with any old PC rom drive assuming the connectors are the same. There is a small thin black wire coming off the superHermes that has what looks like a small screwdriver at the end but is in fact a Hook of sorts. I assume i need to attach this hook onto something (the case? earth?). I managed to snap one of the legs from the SGC battery ( don't ask ) and have ordered a new one but an i correcting in thinking that i could happily use the SuperHermes minus the battery in place, accepting the lack of date time being remembered etc. OK, I'm out of questions for the moment, no doubt I'll have more.
