Installing the Motherboard
Installing a Floppy Diskette Drive
The motherboard has a floppy diskette drive (FDD) interface and ships with
a diskette drive ribbon cable that supports one or two floppy diskette drives.
You can install a 5.25-inch drive and a 3.5-inch drive with various capacities.
The floppy diskette drive cable has one type of connector for a 5.25-inch
drive and another type of connector for a 3.5-inch drive.
You must orient the cable connector so that the pin 1 (color)
edge of the cable corresponds to the pin 1 of the I/O port
connector.
IDE devices enclose jumpers or switches used to set the IDE device as
MASTER or SLAVE. Refer to the IDE device user’s manual. Installing two
IDE devices on one cable, ensure that one device is set to MASTER and the
other device is set to SLAVE. The documentation of your IDE device ex-
plains how to do this.
About SATA Connectors
Your motherboard features two SATA connectors supporting a total of two
drives. SATA refers to Serial ATA (Advanced Technology Attachment) is the
standard interface for the IDE hard drives which are currently used in most
PCs. These connectors are well designed and will only fit in one orientation.
Locate the SATA connectors on the motherboard (see page 14) and follow
the illustration below to install the SATA hard drives.
Installing Serial ATA Hard Drives
To install the Serial ATA (SATA) hard drives, use the SATA cable that sup-
ports the Serial ATA protocol. This SATA cable comes with an SATA power
cable. You can connect either end of the SATA cable to the SATA hard drive
or the connecter on the motherboard.

SATA power cable
(optional)
1. Refer to the illustration below for proper installation:
2. Attach either cable end to the connector on the motherboard.
3. Attach the other cable end to the SATA hard drive.
4. Attach the SATA power cable to the SATA hard drive and connect
the other end to the power supply.
This motherboard does not support the “Hot-Plug” function.
FDD1: Floppy Disk Connector
This connector supports the provided floppy drive ribbon cable. After con-
necting the single end to the onboard floppy connector, connect the re-
maining plugs on the other end to the floppy drives correspondingly.
