Installing IDE Hard Disks
This section explains how to install IDE hard disk drives or other
devices. You can connect up to four ГОЕ devices to the onboard con­
nectors. This section explains the information specific to this
mainboard, not the basic procedure for how to install a hard disk in
your system. Your system manual should have instructions specific
to installing devices in your case.
Note: If you already have a SCSI hard disk installed and you in­
stall an ГОЕ drive, the ГОЕ drive must be the "Primary Master" drive.
Installing a Primary IDE Hard Disk
To install a first ГОЕ hard disk do the following:
1. Follow the instructions in your computer system manual for
installing a hard drive in an empty drive bay and connecting
a power cable.
2. Cormect one end of the IDE ribbon cable to the drive and the
other to the Primary ГОЕ cormector on the mainboard with the
colored edge of the cable at the Pin 1 side of both the drive and
mainboard connectors.
3. Connect the drive LED connector to the ГОЕ activity LED con­
nector on the mainboard.
4. Reassemble and turn on the system and run the BIOS Setup
Utility.
5. Use ГОЕ FTOD Auto Detection in the BIOS Setup utility to de­
tect and enter the drive peirameters for "Primary Master".
Note: If the device you install is not a hard disk drive, you should
leave the Standard CMOS Setup entry for "Primary Master" set to
"None".
