Installing the Motherboard
FDD1: Floppy Disk Connector
This connector supports the provided floppy drive ribbon cable. After connecting the single
end to the onboard floppy connector, connect the remaining plugs on the other end to the
floppy drives correspondingly.
Installing a Floppy Diskette Drive
The motherboard has a floppy diskette drive (FDD1) interface and ships with a diskette
drive ribbon cable that supports two floppy diskette drives. You can install a 5.25-inch drive
and a 3.5-inch drive with various capacities. The floppy diskette drive cable has one type of
connector for a 5.25-inch drive and another type of connector for a 3.5-inch drive.
You must orient the cable connector so that the pin 1 (color) edge of the
cable corresponds to the pin 1 of the I/O port connector.
Refer to the illustration below for proper installation:
This motherboard does not support the “Hot-Plug” function.
1 Attach either cable end to the connector on the motherboard.
2 Attach the other cable end to the SATA hard drive.
3 Attach the SATA power cable to the SATA hard drive and connect the other
end to the power supply.
