2.10 - Attaching Drive Cables
Attaching IDE Drive Cable
Attaching the IDE drive cable is simple. The cable is “keyed” to only allow it
to be connected in the correct manner.
Attaching IDE cable to the IDE connector is illustrated below:
Simply plug in the BLUE END of the IDE cable into the motherboard IDE
connector, and the other end into the drive. Each standard IDE cable has
three connectors, two of which are closer together. The BLUE connector
that is furthest away from the other two is the end that connects to the
motherboard. The other two connectors are used to connect to drives.
Note: Always remember to properly set the drive jumpers. If only using one
device on a channel, it must be set as Master for the BIOS to detect it.
TIP: Pin 1 on the IDE cable (usually designated by a colored wire)
faces the drive’s power connector.
Attaching Serial ATA Cables
The Thunder K8HM is also equipped with 4 Serial ATA (SATA) channels.
Connections for these drives are also very simple.
There is no need to set Master/Slave jumpers on SATA drives.
