Installing A Floppy Diskette Drive - ECS K7VTA3 Manual

Installing a Floppy Diskette Drive

The mainboard has a floppy diskette drive (FDD) interface and ships with a
diskette drive ribbon cable that supports one or two floppy diskette drives. You
can install a 5.25-inch drive and a 3.5-inch drive with various capacities. The
floppy diskette drive cable has one type of connector for a 5.25-inch drive and
another type of connector for a 3.5-inch drive.
You must orient the cable connector so that the pin 1 (color) edge of the
cable corresponds to the pin 1 of the I/O port connector.
FDD1: Floppy Disk Connector
This connector supports the provided floppy drive ribbon cable. After connect-
ing the single end to the onboard floppy connector, connect the remaining
plugs on the other end to the floppy drives correspondingly.
