(9)  Secondary IDE Connector (40-pin block): IDE2 

 

This connector connects to the next set of Master and Slave 
hard disks.  Follow the same procedure described for the 
primary IDE connector.    You may also configure two hard 
disks to be both Masters using one ribbon cable on the 
primary IDE connector and another ribbon cable on the 
secondary IDE connector.   

 

Two hard disks can be connected to each connector.  The 

first HDD is referred to as the “Master” and the second HDD 
is referred to as the “Slave”. 

 

For performance issues, we strongly suggest you don’t install a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM 

drive on the same IDE channel as a hard disk.    Otherwise, the system performance on this 
channel may drop. 

(10)  Serial-ATA Port connector:  

SATA1 / SATA2   

This connector supports the provided Serial 
ATA and Serial ATA IDE hard disk cable to 
connecting the motherboard and serial ATA 
hard disk. 

 

(11) Parallel Port Connector (25-pin female): PARALLEL1 

The On-board Parallel Port can be disabled through the 
BIOS SETUP.  . 
                                         

 

(12) 

Serial COM Port: COM1   

COM1 is the 9-pin connector. The On-board serial port can be disabled through BIOS 
SETUP. 

 

 
(13)

 

VGA Connector (15-pin D-Sub) Connector: VGA1 

             

VGA is the 15-pin D-Subminiature female connector for display monitor.

 

 
 
 

3-2  Headers 

(1)

 

Line-Out/MIC Header for Front Panel (9-pin): AUDIO1 

     This header connect to Front Panel Line-out, MIC connector 

with cable. Without install the cable, this header default   
setting is 5-6 short, 9-10 short. When you install the cable   
you have take off    these jumpers.
