2.7 - Attaching Drive Cables
Attaching IDE Drive Cable
Attaching the IDE drive cable is simple. These cables are “keyed” to only allow
them to be connected in the correct manner. TYAN

motherboards have two on-
board IDE channels, each supporting two drives.
The black connector
designates the Primary channel, while the white connector designates the
Secondary channel.
Attaching IDE cables to the IDE connectors is illustrated below:
Simply plug in the BLUE END of the IDE cable into the motherboard IDE
connector, and the other end(s) into the drive(s). Each standard IDE cable has
three connectors, two of which are closer together. The BLUE connector that is
furthest away from the other two is the end that connects to the motherboard.
The other two connectors are used to connect to drives.
Note: Always remember to properly set the drive jumpers. If only using one
device on a channel, it must be set as Master for the BIOS to detect it.
TIP: Pin 1 on the IDE cable (usually designated by a colored wire) faces
the drive’s power connector.
Attaching Serial ATA Cables
The Toledo i3210W (S5211) and Toledo i3200R (S5211-1U) is also equipped
with 6 Serial ATA (SATA) channels.
Connections for these drives are also very simple.
There is no need to set Master/Slave jumpers on SATA drives.
