Connecting an Ultra ATA Hard Drive
The SATA/150 PCI Card has one Ultra ATA/133 port that supports up to two Ultra ATA/IDE hard drives on a
single 80-conductor, 40-pin Ultra ATA cable
(sold separately)
.
The card does not support ATAPI devices such
as Zip drives or CD/DVD drives
. For maximum compatibility and data integrity, Maxtor strongly recommends
that you do not use older 40-conductor ATA/IDE cables with this card.
1.
Configure the jumpers of the Ultra ATA hard drive to the cable select setting. If you are connecting two Ultra
ATA drives, they should both be configured to the cable select (CS) setting. Consult the drive label,
documentation, or manufacturer for jumper configuration information. Jumper settings for popular Maxtor
models are shown below in Figure 7.
2.
Plug the blue connector on the Ultra ATA cable straight into the Ultra ATA connector on the card. The correct
orientation of the cable connector can be found by matching the key notch on one side of the cable
connector with the corresponding groove in the ATA connector.
