Power
and
signal
cables
for
internal
drives
Your
computer
uses
cables
to
connect
IDE,
SATA,
and
SCSI
devices
to
the
power
supply
and
to
the
system
board.
(See
“System
board
internal
connectors”
on
page
78
for
the
location
of
system-board
connectors.)
Review
the
following
information
before
connecting
power
and
signal
cables
to
internal
drives:
v
The
drives
that
are
preinstalled
in
your
computer
come
with
power
and
signal
cables
attached.
If
you
replace
any
drives,
remember
which
cable
is
attached
to
which
drive.
v
When
you
install
a
drive,
make
sure
that
one
of
the
drive
connectors
of
the
signal
cable
is
connected
to
the
drive
and
that
the
connector
at
the
other
end
of
the
signal
cable
is
connected
to
the
system
board.
v
If
you
have
only
one
IDE
device
on
a
cable,
it
must
be
set
as
a
primary
device.
v
If
two
IDE
devices
are
used
on
a
single
cable,
one
must
be
designated
as
the
primary
device
and
the
other
as
the
secondary
device;
otherwise,
the
computer
might
not
recognize
some
of
the
IDE
devices.
The
primary
and
secondary
designation
is
determined
by
switch
or
jumper
settings
on
each
IDE
device.
The
following
cables
are
provided:
v
Power
cables:
Four-wire
power
cables
connect
the
drives
to
the
power
supply.
At
the
end
of
these
cables
are
plastic
connectors
that
can
be
attached
to
different
drives;
these
connectors
vary
in
size.
You
can
use
either
a
four-wire
power
cable
or
serial
ATA
power
cable
with
serial
ATA
drives,
but
do
not
use
both
at
the
same
time
(use
one
or
the
other).
v
Signal
cables:
Signal
cables
are
typically
flat
cables,
also
called
ribbon
cables,
that
connect
parallel
IDE,
SATA,
SCSI,
and
diskette
drives
to
the
system
board.
Two
or
three
types
of
signal
cable
come
with
your
computer:
–
IDE:
The
wider
IDE
signal
cable
has
three
connectors.
One
of
these
connectors
is
attached
to
the
drive,
one
is
a
spare,
and
the
third
is
attached
to
the
primary
IDE
connector
on
the
system
board.
The
CD-ROM
drive
is
attached
to
an
ATA
100
signal
cable.
ATA
100
signal
cables
are
color-coded.
The
blue
connector
is
attached
to
the
system
board.
The
black
connector
is
attached
to
the
primary
IDE
device.
The
gray
middle
connector
is
attached
to
the
secondary
IDE
device.
–
Diskette
drive
(optional):
The
narrower
signal
cable
has
two
connectors.
One
is
attached
to
the
diskette
drive,
and
the
other
is
attached
to
the
diskette
drive
connector
on
the
system
board.
–
Serial
ATA:
The
narrower,
black
signal
cable
has
two
connectors.
One
is
attached
to
the
SATA
drive,
and
the
other
is
attached
to
the
connector
on
the
system
board.
Each
SATA
drive
comes
with
a
cable.
If
you
install
an
additional
SATA
drive,
you
will
need
an
additional
cable.
SATA
signal
cables
should
be
connected
to
the
system
board
connectors
(SATA
1
through
SATA
4)
in
numerical
order,
starting
with
SATA
1.
–
SCSI:
The
Ultra320
twisted
ribbon
cable
connects
the
internal
Ultra320
SCSI
hard
disk
drive
to
the
mini-PCI
SCSI
connector.
This
cable
has
three
additional
connectors
for
attaching
more
internal
SCSI
devices.
