The onboard IDE connector is for the Ultra DMA 100/66/33 signal cable. There are
three connectors on each Ultra DMA 100/66/33 signal cable: blue, black, and gray.
Connect the blue connector to the motherboard’s IDE connector, then select one of the
following modes to congure your device.

• Pin 20 on the IDE connector is removed to match the covered hole on the Ultra DMA
cable connector. This prevents incorrect insertion when you connect the IDE cable.
• Use the 80-conductor IDE cable for Ultra DMA 133/100/66 IDE devices.
If any device jumper is set as
“Cable-Select,” ensure that all other
device jumpers have the same
setting.
3. USB connectors (10-1 pin USB56, USB78)
These connectors are for USB 2.0 ports. Connect the USB module cable to any of
these connectors, then install the module to a slot opening at the back of the system
chassis. These USB connectors comply with USB 2.0 specication that supports up to
480 Mbps connection speed.
Never connect a 1394
cable to the USB
connectors. Doing so will
damage the motherboard!
The USB module cable
is purchased separately.
