2 Installing and Replacing Hardware Parts in Your PC Workstation

Installing Mass Storage Devices

There are three or four data cables inside your PC Workstation. Two of these

are for IDE devices.

•

The ATA IDE cable supports two IDE devices. This cable is connected

to the Primary IDE connector on the system board. The bootable hard

disk drive is connected to this cable via the MASTER connector. A

second hard disk drive could be installed by using the SLAVE connector.

•

A second IDE drive cable supports two IDE devices. If you install a

CD-ROM drive, a DVD drive or a Zip drive, connect it to this cable.

•

The third cable has one connector for a floppy drive.

•

SCSI models have an additional cable and connectors. For more

information, refer to "Cables and Connectors (SCSI Models)" on page 33.
