Floppy Disk Drive 

The mainboard ships with a floppy disk drive cable that can 
support one or two drives. Drives can be 3.5” or 5.25” wide, with 
capacities of 360K, 720K, 1.2MB, 1.44MB, or 2.88MB.  
Install your drives and connect power from the system power 
supply. Use the cable provided to connect the drives to the floppy 
disk drive connector 

FDC1

.  

 

IDE Devices 

IDE devices include hard disk drives, high-density diskette drives, 
and CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drives, among others. 
The mainboard ships with an IDE cable that can support one or two 
IDE devices. If you connect two devices to a single cable, you 
must configure one of the drives as Master and one of the drives as 
Slave. The documentation of the IDE device will tell you how to 
configure the device as a Master or Slave device. The Master 
device connects to the end of the cable. 
Install the device(s) and connect power from the system power 
supply. Use the cable provided to connect the device(s) to the 
Primary IDE channel connector 

IDE1

 on the mainboard. 

If you want to install more IDE devices, you can purchase a second 
IDE cable and connect one or two devices to the Secondary IDE 
channel connector 

IDE2

 on the mainboard. If you have two 

devices on the cable, one must be Master and one must be Slave. 
 

Serial ATA Connector: J4 & J5 (only for SB VT8237) 

Your mainboard has two SATA connectors to support the Serial 
ATA (Advanced Technology Attachment) standard interface for 
the IDE hard drives.
