Hardware Installation

Adding a Second IDE Disk Drive

When using two IDE drives, one must be set as the master and the

other as the slave. Follow the instructions provided by the drive

manufacturer for setting the jumpers and/or switches on the drives.

The system board supports Enhanced IDE or ATA-2, ATA/33,

ATA/66 and ATA/100 hard drives. We recommend that you use

hard drives from the same manufacturer. In a few cases, drives from

two different manufacturers will not function properly when used to-

gether. The problem lies in the hard drives, not the system board.

Important:

If you encountered problems while using an ATAPI CD-ROM

drive that is set in Master mode, please set the CD-ROM drive

to Slave mode. Some ATAPI CD-ROMs may not be recognized

and cannot be used if incorrectly set in Master mode.

BIOS Setting

Configure the onboard IDE in the Integrated Peripherals submenu

(“OnChip IDE Device” section) of the BIOS. Refer to chapter 3 for

more information.
