2. Primary IDE connector (40-1 pin PRI_IDE1)

This connector is for an Ultra ATA100/66/33 signal cable. The Ultra

ATA 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 ATA

100/66/33 IDE slave device (optical drive/hard disk drive), and a gray connector

for an Ultra ATA 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.

4.3 Internal connectors

1. Floppy disk drive connector (34-1 pin FLOPPY1)

This connector is for the provided ﬂoppy disk drive (FDD) signal cable. Insert

one end of the cable to this connector, then connect the other end to the

signal connector at the back of the ﬂoppy disk drive.

Pin 5 on the connector is removed to prevent incorrect cable connection when

using a FDD cable with a covered Pin 5.

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

ATA cable connector. This prevents incorrect insertion when you connect the

IDE cable.

• Use the 80-conductor IDE cable for Ultra ATA 100/66/33 IDE devices.
