Chapter 7: Installing AGP and PCI Cards
The two things all disk drives need
are power and a signal ribbon cable. We’ve connected ribbon cables
for sending signals and information between the drives and the mainboard,
and we’ve connected power to each device.
The next step will be to install
all AGP and PCI expansion cards. Figure 115
shows the AGP and PCI expansion slots on the mainboard.
