What two connections should be provided to a floppy disk drive during installation?
a cable from the power supply to the Berg power connector on the FDD a cable from the 20-pin ATX power connector socket on the motherboard to the Berg power connector on the FDD
What is fdd data cable?
FDD cable is for floppy disk drive (FDD).
How is an internal FDD connected to the power supply?
An internal FDD (Floppy Disk Drive) is connected to the power supply via a power cable that typically has a four-pin Molex connector. This connector provides the necessary voltage (usually +5V and +12V) for the FDD to operate. Additionally, the FDD is connected to the motherboard through a data cable, usually a 34-pin ribbon cable, which facilitates data transfer between the drive and the computer system. Proper connection of both the power and data cables is essential for the FDD to function correctly.
What is a FDD connector?
fdd is a floppy disk controller. this is you will hoke it up
Explain how the two available drives on FDD data cable are distinguished?
Floppy data cable is 34 pin flat cable having two connectors for floppy drive. The floppy drive connected at the end connector is A: and the another connector disk is B:..
What happens when you install a floppy drive cable backwards?
The floppy drive data cable has a stripe denoting pin #1...PIN #1 on the FDD cable must be aligned with PIN #1 on the drive connector, or the drive will not work...This misalignment does not damage the drive, but the activity light will stay on constantly...To correct this, turn the computer off, reconnect the data cable aligning the pins correctly & reboot the computer....
Why LED of FDD is Continuously glow?
This is a question from the A+ test!!!!!! The answer is that the cable is reversed at one end. The cable must be plugged in correctly at both the ends. The red wire on the cable shows the pin 1 end of the connector and must be plugged in correctly on the MB and the drive.
What are 3 types of ribbon cables you might find inside a PC?
-Sata Cable -IDE Cable -Molex/Sata power cable Other possible -SCSI Cable -Floppy cable -SLI/Crossfire Cable -12V 24 pin Motherboard connector -12v 4-pin CPU Connector -12v PCI-e Connector
What kind of power connector provides the fdd with power supply?
The power connector that provides power to a floppy disk drive (FDD) is typically a 4-pin Molex connector. This connector supplies both 5V and 12V power to the drive, with the 5V line powering the electronics of the FDD and the 12V line used for the motor that spins the floppy disk. In some modern systems, especially those using SATA, a SATA power connector may also be used with appropriate adapters.
What two cables connect to the hard disk?
There are two cables that connect to the floppy drive in a desktop computer.There is a four pin power cableThere is a ribbon cable that has a part twisted end (the twisted end connects to the floppy drive).
Which connections should be provided to a floppy disk drive during installation?
Connecting a floppy Drive in a Desktop ComputerYou should connect the 4-Pin 12 Volt non-molex Connector from the power supply to the power input of the Floppy Disk Drive, also the IDE ribbon cable from the FDD output on the Main-board to the FDD input on the Floppy Disk Drive, with the pink stripe on the outside of the FDD Input & Output sockets, it is important to make sure you are grounded to the case whilst doing this with the PC Power Cord plugged in but switched off
What is the purpose of the FDD data-ribbon cable twist?
The twist in an FDD (Floppy Disk Drive) data-ribbon cable serves to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk between the individual signal wires within the cable. This twisting improves signal integrity by ensuring that the wires maintain a consistent impedance and reducing the likelihood of data corruption during transmission. Additionally, the twist helps in maintaining the overall flexibility and manageability of the cable in tight spaces.
