2.8 Connectors
This section describes and illustrates the internal connectors on the
motherboard.
Do not place jumper caps over connector pins. Doing so may damage
your motherboard.
Always connect ribbon cables with the red stripe to Pin 1 on the
connectors. Pin 1 is usually on the side closest to the power connector
on hard drives and CD-ROM drives, but may be on the opposite side
on floppy disk drives.
