All I find is the CPC 6128 diagrams, I am not 100% sure they apply to the +3, but I kind of remember that it does.

Here's a guy putting an HxC inside a 6128:

Google thoroughly before you burn something up. If the +3 also has the power connector inverted, you have to make sure you don't fry something up by plugging it normally.

A lot of people choose to add it externally, though:

[edit] Here, search for "(iv) Internal 3.5” A: drive on Spectrum +3" and it will say the process is the same as the Amstrad 6128:

In red, it does say the power connector is inverted. So be wary.
