Diskette Drive Signal Cable
A diskette drive signal cable comes attached to the riser board
and to the standard 1.44-MB diskette drive.
The colored edge of the cable goes to pin 1 on the cable
connector. Align the red edge of the cable with pin 1 (the
notched end) on the drive connector.
The typical three-connector diskette drive signal cable has a
middle connector that is not used in this system.
IDE Signal Cables
Systems with an IDE hard drive come with a three-connector
IDE interface cable attached to the primary IDE connector.
Some systems come with a second three-connector IDE cable
connected to the second IDE drive (such as the CD-ROM
drive or DVD-ROM drive) and to the secondary IDE
connector.
If the IDE cable is not keyed with a connector tab, align the
colored edge of the cable with the pin 1 side of the drive
connector.
PC Card Adapter Cable
Two PCMCIA-compliant cables come with the PC card
adapter available in some systems. The cables are bound
together, and connect to the dual PCMCIA ports on the PC
adapter board and the connectors on the back of the PC card
adapter.
