Fan Power Connectors
The fan power connectors support system cooling fan with +12V. The CPU FAN supports Smart FAN function. When
connect 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 fan control.

ATA133 Hard Disk Connector (IDE connector)
A IDE connector can connect a Master and a Slave drive. You can connect CD-ROM/ Hard Driver and other IDE devices.
The Ultra ATA133 interface boosts data transfer rates between the computer and the hard drive up to 133 megabytes (MB)
per second. The new interface is one-third faster than earlier record-breaking Ultra ATA/100 technology and is backwards
compatible with the existing Ultra ATA interface.

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.
