Chapter 2 Installation Instructions

IDE Connectors: PIDE & SIDE

These connectors support the provided UltraDMA133/100/66 IDE hard disk rib-

bon cable and you can configure as a disk array. Refer to Raid User Guide for

details on how to set up RAID configurations.

Connect the cable’s blue connector to the primary (recommended) or second-

ary IDE connector, then connect the gray connector to the slave device (hard

disk drive) and the black connector to the master device. If you install two hard

disks, 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.

Attention:

Ribbon cables are directional, therefore, make sure to always con-

nect with the cable on the same side as pin 1 of the PIDE/SIDE or

FLOPPY connector on the motherboard.
