Optional ATA or ATAPI device cabling
This server includes one IDE cable (the Cable Select Cable) that can connect up to two ATA or ATAPI
devices to the system through the integrated IDE controller. This cable has three clearly labeled
connectors. If only one IDE device is connected to the system, it must be secured to the cable connector
labeled Drive 0. For all IDE devices, set the configuration jumpers to "Cable Select" or "CS."
