WARNING! Some pins are used for connectors or power sources. These are
clearly separated from jumpers in "Layout Contents." Placing jumper caps over
these will cause damage to your motherboard.
IMPORTANT: Ribbon cables should always be connected with the red stripe on Pin
1 side of the connector. The four corners of the connectors are labeled on the
motherboard. Pin 1 is the side closest to the power connector on hard drives and some
floppy drives. IDE ribbon cables must be less than 18 in. (46 cm), with the second
drive connector no more than 6 in. (15 cm) from the first connector.
