8.  USB 2.0 ports 1 and 2. These two 4-pin Universal Serial Bus (USB) 

ports are available for connecting USB 2.0 devices.

9.  VGA port. This 15-pin port connects to a VGA monitor.
10.  Serial connector. This 9-pin COM1 port is for serial devices.
11.  PS/2 keyboard port (purple). This port is for a PS/2 keyboard.

1.10.2 Internal connectors

1.  Primary IDE connector (40-1 pin PRI_IDE)

This connector is for an Ultra DMA 100/66/33 signal cable. The Ultra 

DMA 100/66/33 signal cable has three connectors: a blue connector 

for the primary IDE connector on the motherboard, a black connector 

for an Ultra DMA 100/66/33 IDE slave device (optical drive/hard disk 

drive), and a gray connector for an Ultra DMA 100/66/33 IDE master 

device (hard disk drive). If you install two hard disk drives, you must 

configure the second drive as a slave device by setting its jumper 

accordingly. Refer to the hard disk documentation for the jumper 

settings.

•  Pin 20 on the IDE connector is removed to match the covered hole 

on the Ultra DMA cable connector. This prevents incorrect insertion 

when you connect the IDE cable.

•  Use an 80-conductor IDE cable for Ultra DMA 100/66/33 IDE 

devices.
