Connecting Peripheral Devices; Floppy And Ide Disk Drive Connectors - Abit NF-M2SV Installation Manual

To install system memory:
1. Power off the computer and unplug the AC power cord before
installing or removing memory modules.
2. Locate the DIMM slot on the board.
3. Hold two edges of the DIMM module carefully, keep away from
touching its connectors.
4. Align the notch key on the module with the rib on the slot.
5. Firmly press the module into the slots until the ejector tabs at both
sides of the slot automatically snap into the mounting notch. Do not
force the DIMM module in with extra force as the DIMM module
only fits in one direction.
6. To remove the DIMM modules, push the two ejector tabs on the
slot outward simultaneously, and then pull out the DIMM module.
※ Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the
computer or optional boards. Before starting these procedures,
ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by touching a
grounded metal object briefly.

1.8 Connecting Peripheral Devices

1.8.1 Floppy and IDE Disk Drive Connectors

Connect the single end at the longer length of ribbon cable to the FDD
on the board, the two connectors on the other end to the floppy disk
drives connector. Generally you need only one floppy disk drive in your
system.
※ The red line on the ribbon cable must be aligned with pin-1 on both
the FDD port and the floppy connector.
Connect the single end (blue connector) at the longer length of ribbon
cable to the IDE port of this board, the other two ends (gray and black
connector) at the shorter length of the ribbon cable to the connectors
of your hard drives.
※ Make sure to configure the "Master"
and "Slave" relation before connecting
two drives by one single ribbon cable.
The red line on the ribbon cable must
be aligned with pin-1 on both the IDE
port and the hard-drive connector.
