Hard Disk Connectors: IDE1 & IDE2
The mainboard uses an IDE controller on the ServerWorks OSB4 chipset
that provides PIO mode 0-4, Bus Master, and Ultra DMA 33 modes. It has two
HDD connectors IDE1 (Primary) and IDE2 (Secondary). You can connect up to
four hard disk drives, CD-ROM, 120MB Floppy or DOM (Disk on Module) to
IDE1 and IDE2.
IDE1 (Primary IDE Connector)
- The first hard disk drive should always be connected to IDE1. You can
connect a Master and a Slave drive to IDE1.
IDE2 (Secondary IDE Connector)
- You can connect a Master and a Slave drive to IDE2.
If you install two hard disks on cable, you must configure the
second drive to Slave mode by setting its jumper. Refer to the
hard disk documentation supplied by hard disk vendors for
TIP
jumper setting instructions.
