3.5.3 Ventilation
The DiamondMax10 80/100/120/160/200/250/300GB AT hard disk

FOR SYSTEMS WITH A MOTHERBOARD ATA ADAPTER
You can install the DiamondMax10 80/100/120/160/200/250/300GB
AT hard disk drives in an AT-compatible system that contains a 40-pin
ATA bus connector on the motherboard.
To connect the drive to the motherboard, use a 80 conductor ribbon
cable 18 inches in length or shorter. Ensure that pin 1 of the drive is
connected to pin 1 of the motherboard connector.
3.6 FOR SYSTEMS WITH AN ATA ADAPTER BOARD
To install the DiamondMax10 80/100/120/160/200/250/300GB AT
hard disk drive in an AT-compatible system without a 40-pin ATA bus
connector on its motherboard, you need a third-party IDE-compatible
adapter board.
3.6.1 Adapter Board Installation
Carefully read the manual that accompanies your adapter board before
installing it. Make sure that all the jumpers are set properly and that
there are no address or signal conflicts. You must also investigate to see
if your AT-compatible system contains a combination floppy and hard
disk controller board. If it does, you must disable the hard disk drive
controller functions on that controller board before proceeding.
Once you have disabled the hard disk drive controller functions on the
floppy/hard drive controller, install the adapter board. Again, make sure
that you have set all jumper straps on the adapter board to avoid
addressing and signal conflicts.
Note: For Sections 3.3 and 3.6, power should be turned off
on the computer before installing the drive.
