Hardware Installation

General instructions for installing the card are provided below. If needed, please refer to your computer’s reference manual for more information.

Caution: Static Electricity Discharge may permanently damage your system. To avoid possible static electricity discharge during installation, please follow the guidelines below:

• Discharge any static electricity build up in your body by touching a large grounded metal surface or the computer’s case (if plugged in), for a few seconds.

• During installation, avoid any contact with internal parts. Handle cards only by their external edges.

1. Turn OFF the power to your computer and any other con-

nected peripheral devices.

2. Unplug the power cord from the back of the computer.

3. Open your computer’s cover.

4. Remove the slot bracket from an available PCI slot.

Device Connection

The UltraATA 133 PCI is a dual channel Ultra ATA/133 controller that supports up to four IDE hard disk drives or ATAPI devices. If you plan to use the second IDE channel (IDE2), you will need to purchase another 40-pin/80-wire Ultra ATA ribbon cable.

In order to achieve high-speed data transfer, a 40-pin/80-wire Ultra ATA ribbon cable is recommended. Also, do not mix Ultra ATA/133 hard disk with slower IDE or ATAPI devices on the same channel.

1. Install hard disk drive(s) in chassis.

2. Attach one connector on the long end of the Ultra ATA ribbon

cable to the board's IDE connector and the other connector(s) to your hard disk drive(s). Make sure pin 1 on the cable (indicated by the colored stripe) matches pin 1 on the board's IDE connector and your hard disk drive(s).

3. When two hard disk drives are installed on the same IDE

channel, make sure one drive is set up as Master and the other as Slave. This rule applies to both IDE channels.

4. The Ultra ATA ribbon cable has two connectors. If you install

only one drive, connect it to the end connector of the cable. On the other hand, if you install two drives, connect the master drive to the end connector of the cable and the slave drive in the middle connector.
