Step 4Cut USB cable and trace wires
Now cut the USB cable that came with the HDD enclosure.
Be sure to leave enough length to run from the USB port on the PCB to where the hard drive will be sitting.
Using the bigger end of the USB cable (type A plug - the one you won't need), trace each wire with the OHM meter in a similar fashion as before. This time keep track of which pin goes to which color wire so you know how to solder them to the back of the PCB.
Once it's cut, twist and then tin the wires with the soldering iron.
