The green wire goes to a screw-hole on the chassis between the hard drive and
the power supply and almost along the rear edge.  To fasten it, I usually put
the screw through the ground lug (on the green wire) and move the wire/lug
into position then fasten-down the screw.  Visibility CAN be obscured in that
area due to the brown and blue wires (from the power supply to the AC assy)
and due to the wire(s) to the fan(s).
