Internal connectors

This section describes and illustrates the internal connectors on the motherboard.
1. Floppy disk drive connector (34-1 pin FLOPPY)
This connector is for the provided floppy disk drive (FDD) signal cable. Insert
one end of the cable to this connector, then connect the other end to the
signal connector at the back of the floppy disk drive.
Pin 5 on the connector is removed to prevent incorrect cable connection when
using an FDD cable with a covered Pin 5.

2. ATX power connectors (24-pin ATXPWR, 4-pin ATX12V)

proper orientation and push down firmly until the connectors completely fit.

Do not forget to connect the 4-pin ATX +12 V power plug; otherwise, the
system will not boot up.
Make sure that your ATX 12V power supply can provide 8A on the +12V
lead and at least 1A on the +5-volt standby lead (+5VSB). The minimu
recommended wattage is 230W, or 300W for a fully configured system. The
system can become unstable and might experience difficulty powering up if
the power supply is inadequate.
You must install a PSU with a higher power rating if you intend to install
additional devices.
