Note: Ribbon cable connectors are
usually keyed so that they can only
be installed correctly on the device
connector. If the connector is not
keyed, make sure that you match the
pin-1 side of the cable connector with
the pin-1 side of the device connec-
tor. Each connector has the pin-1
side clearly marked. The pin-1 side of
each ribbon cable is always marked
with a colored stripe on the cable.
3. Plug the correct connector on the FDD cable for the 5.25-inch or 3.5-inch drive
into the FDD connector (B).
4. Plug a power cable from the case power supply into the power connector on
the FDD (C).
When you first start up your system, go immediately to the Setup Utility to
configure the floppy diskette drives that you have installed. See Standard
CMOS Features on page 28 for more information.
