2.7 IDE, CDROM hard drive connector (CN15)
The PCM-9587 provides 1 IDE channels which you can attach up to two
Enhanced Integrated Device Electronics hard disk drives or CDROM to
the PCM-9587’s internal controller. The PCM-9587's IDE controller uses
a PCI interface. This advanced IDE controller supports faster data trans-
fer, PIO mode 3, mode 4 and UDMA/100.
2.7.1 Connecting the hard drive
Wire number 1 on the cable is red or blue, and the other wires are gray.
1. Connect one end of the cable to CN15. Make sure that the red (or
blue) wire corresponds to pin 1 on the connector, which is labeled
on the board (on the right side).
2. Plug the other end of the cable into the Enhanced IDE hard drive,
with pin 1 on the cable corresponding to pin 1 on the hard drive.
(See your hard drive’s documentation for the location of the con-
