  • Page 23: 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 PRI-IDE connector designates the Primary channel, while the SEC-IDE connector designates the Secondary channel.
  • Page 24 Trinity KT400 S2495 Chapter 2: Board Installation Floppy Drives Attaching a floppy drive can be done in a similar manner to an IDE drive. See the diagram below for an example of a floppy cable. Most of the current floppy drives on the market require that the cable be installed with the colored stripe positioned next to the power connector.

    Trinity KT400 S2495 Appendix I: Glossary Appendix I: Glossary ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface): a power management specification that allows the operating system to control the amount of power distributed to the computer’ s devices. Devices not in use can be turned off, reducing unnecessary power expenditure.
  • Page 58 EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM): also called Flash BIOS, is a ROM chip which can, unlike normal ROM, be updated. This allows you to keep up with changes in the BIOS programs without having to buy a new chip. TYAN’s BIOS updates can be found at http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 59 Form factor: an industry term for the size, shape, power supply type, and external connector type of the Personal Computer Board (PCB) or motherboard. The standard form factors are the AT and ATX, although TYAN also makes some Baby-AT and ATX Footprint boards. Global timer: onboard hardware timer, such as the Real-Time Clock (RTC).
  • Page 60 Trinity KT400 S2495 Appendix I: Glossary Latency: the amount of time that one part of a system spends waiting for another part to catch up. This is most common when the system sends data out to a peripheral device, and it waiting for the peripheral to send some data back (peripherals tend to be slower than onboard system components).
  • Page 61 Trinity KT400 S2495 Appendix I: Glossary RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks): a way for the same data to be stored in different places on many hard drives. By using this method, the data is stored redundantly, also the multiple hard drives will appear as a single drive to the operating system. RAID level 0 is known as striping, where data is striped (or overlapped) across multiple hard drives, but offers no fault-tolerance.
