How can you tell that a ribbon cable should only be used to connect a floppy drive?
-
It has a red line
-
It is rainbow colored
-
It is white
-
It has a twist in it
EXPLANATION
The connectors on the ends of the cable are a different size than the
connectors for a standard IDE device like a Hard Drive or CD rom.
You should also notice that there is a twist in the cable between two of
the connectors.
There are two cables that connect to the floppy drive in a desktop computer.
- There is a four pin power cable
- There is a ribbon cable that has a part twisted end (the twisted end connects to the floppy drive).
