IDE Connectors: IDE1
The mainboard has a 32-bit Enhanced PCI IDE and Ultra DMA 66/100 controller that
provides PIO mode 0~4, Bus Master, and Ultra DMA 66/100 function. You can connect
up to two hard disk drives, CD-ROM, 120MB Floppy and other devices.
The first hard drive should always be connected to IDE1. IDE1 can connect a Master
and a Slave drive. You must configure second hard drive to Slave mode by setting the
jumper accordingly.

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 jumper
setting instructions.
Serial ATA Connectors controlled by Intel ICH6: SATA1/2/3/4
The Southbridge of this mainboard is Intel ICH6, which supports four serial
connectors SATA1~4.
SATA1~4 are dual high-speed Serial ATA interface ports. Each supports 1st generation serial
ATA data rates of 150 MB/s. All SATA connectors are fully compliant with Serial ATA 1.0
specifications. Each Serial ATA connector can connect to 1 hard disk device.
MSI Reminds You...
Please do not fold the serial ATA cable in a 90-degree angle, which will cause the loss of data
during transmission.
CD-In Connector: CD1
The connector is for CD-ROM audio connector.
Fan Power Connectors: CPUFAN1/SYSFAN1
The 4-pin CPUFAN1 (processor fan) and 3-pin SYSFAN1
(system fan) support system cooling fan with +12V. CPUFAN1
can support three- or four-pin head connector. When
connecting the wire to the connectors, always take note that the red wire is the positive and
should be connected to the +12V, the black wire is Ground and should be connected to GND. If
the mainboard has a System Hardware Monitor chipset on-board, you must use a specially
designed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of the CPU fan control.
MSI Reminds You...
Always consult the vendors for proper CPU cooling fan.
