Abit AB-BF6 Manual page 25

Installing the Motherboard
The first HDD is referred to as the "Master",
The second HDD is referred to as the "Slave".
♦ For performance issues, we strongly suggest you don't install a CD-ROM drive on the
same IDE channel as a hard disk. Otherwise, the system performance on this channel may
drop. (how much depends on your CD-ROM drive performance)
!The Master or Slave status of the hard disk drive is set on the hard disk itself. Please
refer to the hard disk drive user's manual.
!A red mark on a wire typically designates the location of pin 1. You need to align the
wire pin 1 to the IDE1 (or IDE2) connector pin 1, then insert the wire connector into
the IDE1(or IDE 2) connector.
Figure 2-8. BF6 back panel connectors
Figure 2-8 shows the BF6 back panel connectors, these connectors are for connection to
outside devices to the motherboard. We will describe which devices will attach to these
connectors below.
KBM Lower: PS/2 Keyboard Connector
Note
Attach a PS/2 keyboard connector to this 6-
pin Din-connector. If you use an AT
keyboard, you can go to a computer store to
purchase an AT to ATX converter adapter,
then you can connect your AT keyboard to
this connector. We suggest you use a PS/2
keyboard for best compatibility.
