Hardware Installation
The system board supports Enhanced IDE or ATA-2, ATA/33,
ATA/66 or ATA/100 hard drives. We recommend that you use hard
drives from the same manufacturer. In a few cases, drives from two
different manufacturers will not function properly when used together.
The problem lies in the hard drives, not the system board.
Important:
If you encountered problems while using an ATAPI CD-ROM
drive that is set in Master mode, please set the CD-ROM drive
to Slave mode. Some ATAPI CD-ROMs may not be recognized
and cannot be used if incorrectly set in Master mode.
2.9.6 Universal Serial Bus Ports
The system board supports 4 USB
ports. USB allows data exchange
between your computer and a wide
range of simultaneously accessible
external Plug and Play peripherals. You
must have the proper drivers installed
in your operating system to use the
USB ports. Refer to your operating
systems manual or documentation.
Two onboard USB ports (J2 - Black)
are located at the ATX double deck
ports of the board. The J14 connector
on the system board allows you to
connect the optional 3rd and 4th USB
ports. These optional USB ports, which
are mounted on a card-edge bracket, will be provided as an option.
If you wish to use the optional 3rd and 4th USB ports, install the
card-edge bracket to the system chassis then insert the connector
that is attached to the USB port cables to J14. The USB ports cable
connector can be inserted only if pin 1 of the cable is aligned with
pin 1 of J14.
