IDE Hard Disk Support

The board comes with an enhanced PCI IDE controller that supports PIO mode 4
and Ultra DMA (Direct Memory Access) mode data transfers. In addition, two PCI
IDE interfaces are mounted on the riser card to enable the system to support a
maximum of four IDE hard disks, or any other IDE devices. See Figure 2-2 for the
location of the IDE interfaces.

Connect the cables according to the IDE hard disk configuration in Table 2-3.
Follow the instructions in the housing installation manual on how to install a hard
disk in the system.
