    Unplug the power from your computer power supply and then touch a safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power supply case). For the safest conditions, TYAN recommends wearing a static safety wrist strap. (2) Inspect the mounting holes pattern of the Thunder i7520 S5360 to match your chassis standoff locations and remove the additional standoffs.

  • Page 32: Mounting The Motherboard

    Some chassis’ include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are usable, TYAN recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the motherboard more securely in place.

    Check Section 2.2 “Memory Consideration” for your memory module selection. For this information, please check TYAN’s web site at: www.tyan.com When installing memory modules, make sure the modules align properly with the memory socket.
  • Page 34: Attaching Drive Cables

    Attaching IDE drive cabling is simple. These cables are “keyed” to only allow them to be connected in the correct manner. TYAN motherboards have two on-board IDE channels, each supporting two drives. The black connector designates the Primary channel, while the white connector designates the Secondary channel.
