CABLE CONNECTION
This section describes the cable connection pattern within the server.
IDE Interface
A single IDE connector is installed on the baseboard. Two connectors are connected with cables in
the normal status. One of the connectors is connected to the CD-ROM drive normally installed. The
other connector can be connected to the IDE device, a built-in option installed on the 5.25-inch
device bay.
For the device installed on the 5.25-inch device bay, set the operation mode (MASTER/SLAVE) to
SLAVE (for the setting, see the manual coming with the device). Connect the proper cables to the
baseboard, CD-ROM drive, and option devices in the order.
