After setting up disk devices, we need to connect their cables to the motherboard.    As a 

result of various connector locations on different motherboards, it is wise to read the words 
marked on the motherboard before you connect the cable.    Let's take a look at how these 
connectors are marked on the motherboard. 

 

You won't go wrong if you read the words correctly. 

 

First pin 

40-pin IDE connector 

34-pin floppy diskette drive connector 

First pin 

You can distinguish IDE cable from left and right.  Normally, a standard cable has a 
fool-proof device which is a small salient on the cable and you will find a small dent on the 
socket.    Just aim the salient at the dent and then plug it in. 

     

                       

 

 

 

 

 

CD-ROM Drive 

Hard-disk Drive

 

The red line aims at the first
pin.
