3.8.2Internal Connectors

WARNING! Some pins are used for connectors or power sources. These are clearly distinguished from jumpers in the Motherboard Layout. Placing jumper caps over these connector pins will cause damage to your motherboard.

IMPORTANT: Always connect ribbon cables with the red stripe to Pin 1 on the connectors. Pin 1 is usually on the side closest to the power connector on hard drives and CD-ROM drives, but may be on the opposite side on floppy disk drives.

1)HDD Activity LED (2-pin HDDLED)

This connector supplies power to the cabinet’s HDD activity LED. Read and write activity by devices connected to the Primary or Secondary IDE, and SCSI-A or B connectors cause the HDD LED to light up.
