Serial and Parallel ATA Drive Guidelines and Features 4.2.3 PATA Cable Layout The faces of industry-standard cable connectors are color-coded for easy recognition: ■ System board connector = blue face ■ Device 0 connector = black face ■ Device 1 connector = gray face ✎ The color code of an industry-standard cable is applicable only if the drive's jumper is in the cable-select position. Single-Drive Cable System Board Device 0 Blue Face Two-Drive Cable System Board Black Face Device 1 Device 0 Blue Gray Black Face Face Face On a two-drive cable, the Drive/Device 0 connector is always the farthest one from the system board connector and the Drive/Device 1 connector is always the closest to the system board connector. ✎ Some cables may be labeled "Drive 0" instead of "Device 0" and "Drive 1" instead of "Device 1". 4.3 PATA Drive Installation Guidelines Ä CAUTION: HP only supports a PATA hard drive in SATA systems when the PATA hard drive is used in a MultiBay device. This computer system board has one Parallel ATA (PATA) channel. The channel can have up to two devices attached to it. All drives are connected to a channel using an industry-standard 80-conductor cable. ✎ The industry standard 1.44 MB diskette drive has its own separate channel and is not included as a part of the maximum four drives. 4-4 361685-001 Service Reference Guide, dx5150
