2.4.3. Primary and Secondary IDE connectors
Connector:
CN 9 (primary)/ CN 10 (secondary)
Type:
40 pin blocks
The 361 mainboards all have two IDE connectors: a primary and secondary. Each IDE connec-
tor can support two IDE drives. These mainboards can therefore support up to four IDE de-
vices each. If you install two hard drives, you need to configure the second drive to
slave
mode in the BIOS setup
.
Please refer to your hard drive manual for the appropriate jumper
settings.
