Installing the Motherboard
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 explains how to do this.
Installing a Hard Dish Drive/CD-ROM/SATA Hard Drive
This section describes how to install IDE devices such as a hard disk drive and a CD-ROM
drive.
About IDE Devices
Your motherboard has two IDE channels interface. An IDE ribbon cable supporting two IDE
devices is bundled with the motherboard.
You must orient the cable connector so that the pin1 (color) edge of the
cable corresponds to the pin 1 of the I/O port connector.
IDE1: IDE Connector
This motherboard supports two high data transfer SATA ports with each runs up to 1.5 Gb/
s. To get better system performance, we recommend users connect the CD-ROM to the
IDE channel, and set up the hard dives on the SATA ports.
IDE2: Secondary IDE Connector
The second drive on this controller must be set to slave mode. The cinfiguration is the same
as IDE1.
