Connectors
Floppy Disk Drive Connector: FDD1
This standard FDD connector supports 360K, 720K, 1.2M, 1.44M and 2.88M floppy disk types.
ATA133 Hard Disk Connector: IDE1
The main board has a 32-bit Enhanced PCI IDE and Ultra DMA 66/ 100/ 133 controller that provides
PIO mode 0~4, Bus Master, and Ultra DMA 66/ 100/ 133 function. You can connect hard disk drives,
CD-ROM and other IDE devices.
The Ultra ATA133 interface boosts data transfer rates between the computer and the hard drive up to
133MB per second. The new interface is one-third faster than earlier record-breaking Ultra ATA100
technology and is backward compatible with the existing Ultra ATA interface.
IDE1 (Primary IDE Connector)
IDE1 can connect a Master and a Slave drive. You must configure the second hard drive to Slave mode
by setting the jumper accordingly.
Important!
If you install two hard disks on IDE cable, you must configure the second drive to Slave
mode by setting its jumper.
Serial ATA Connectors: SATA1~SATA4
SATA1~SATA4 are high-speed SATAII interfaces ports. Each supports data rates of 300MB/s and is fully compliant
with Serial ATA specifications. Each Serial ATA connector can connect to one hard disk device.
