2. IDE connectors (40-1 pin PRI_IDE, SEC_IDE)

This connector is for an Ultra DMA 133 signal cable. The Ultra

DMA 133 signal cable has three connectors: a blue connector for the

IDE connector on the motherboard, a black connector for an Ultra

DMA 133/100/66 IDE slave device (optical drive/hard disk drive), and

a gray connector for an Ultra DMA 133/100/66 IDE master device

(hard disk drive). If you install two hard disk drives, you must configure

the second drive as a slave device by setting its jumper accordingly.

Refer to the hard disk documentation for the jumper settings.

1.10.2 Internal connectors

1. Floppy disk drive connector (34-1 pin FLOPPY)

This connector is for the provided ﬂoppy disk drive (FDD) signal cable. Insert

one end of the cable to this connector, then connect the other end to the

signal connector at the back of the ﬂoppy disk drive.

Pin 5 on the connector is removed to prevent incorrect cable connection when

using a FDD cable with a covered Pin 5.

• Pin 20 on the IDE connector is removed to match the covered hole on the

Ultra DMA cable connector. This prevents incorrect insertion when you

connect the IDE cable.

• Use the 80-conductor IDE cable for Ultra DMA 133/100/66 IDE devices.
