Daughter Boards and Riser Boards

Поиск

 

Daughter boards and riser boards plug into the motherboard to expand the number of expansion slots or ports available, or in some cases, add devices. If the board is used solely to add extra PCI slots or turn the angle of adapter cards to fit into smaller cases, it is a riser. The two exceptions are Audio Modem Riser (AMR) and Communications Network Risers (CNR). AMR and CNR riser cards provide I/O port connections for input/output (I/O) ports built in to the motherboard (inte-grated ports). Both types of cards are now obsolete.

Storage Devices

 

There are many types of storage media: magnetic disk, tape, laser, and solid-state flash. There are internal drives and external storage devices. Internal hard drives mount in 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch bays (and can be adapted to larger bays). Optical drives mount in 5.25-inch bays. External drives con-nect through many kinds of readers and ports. USB, FireWire, and eSATA are common. Card read-ers support flash memory cards, and optical drives support optical discs. Table 1-8 provides a brief overview of drive interfaces. For more information, continue reading.

 

Table 1-8 Overview of Drive Interfaces

Drives per Channel Number Hot Descriptions and Details
Interface   of Pins Swappable  
         
PATA, ATA,   40, 80 No Old standard.
IDE, EIDE       Two drives per channel.
       
        Jumpers assign master and
        slave drives. CS assigns pri-
        mary and secondary(master/
        slave) by drive position on
        cable.

Drives per Channel Number Hot Descriptions and Details
Interface   of Pins Swappable  
         
SCSI 8 or 16 50, 68, 80 Yes Typically found on servers.
        Drives are arranged along a
        bus-like cable with termina-
        tors on both ends.
        Jumpers or dip switches
        assign drive numbers in
        binary.
         
SATA     Yes Small cable improves air flow
        for improved cooling.
        Faster than PATA.
        One drive per channel.
         
FDD     No Only for floppy disk drives
        (FDDs).

 

Pin 1 is usually oriented clos-est to the power connector, but look for the red stripe.

 

Some old FDD cables support multiple FDDs. They have a twist in the middle of the rib-bon connectors.
