IDE Drive Positioning
Normally the system’s primary hard disk drive should
be in the Primary Master position. If you will use only
the supplied ribbon cable, connect a CD-ROM drive to
the Primary Slave position.
If you obtain an additional IDE ribbon cable, you can
install a second hard disk drive in the Primary Slave po-
sition and install the CD-ROM as the Secondary Master.
This is a good idea if the CD-ROM drive uses a slower
data transfer mode than the hard disk drive.
Follow any instructions that come with the drives to con-
figure and install them. IDE devices generally can be set
to one of three operation modes:
• Master
• Slave
• Cable Select
Many drives come set to the Master setting. If you will
use the drive in a Slave position, you must reconfigure it
as either Slave or use the Cable Select setting to allow the
drives position on the cable to define the mode, if the
drives support that mode.
Connecting a Floppy Disk Drive
This motherboard has one Floppy Drive connector for
connecting one or two floppy disk drives. Most computer
systems use one 3.5-inch 1.44MB floppy disk drive. The
drive connector is for a standard floppy drive ribbon cable.
To install a floppy disk drive, connect the drive to the
end of the cable, which is the Drive A: position. Plug the
other end of the cable into the floppy disk drive connec-
tor on the motherboard.
