The floppy ribbon belt is a wee bit narrower compared to CD-ROM, or HD belts, I guess it is an ordinary floppy, then. My main board manual just says: one floppy port supporting, 3,5" or 5,25" I counted pins on the board layout Floppy port = 2 rows by 17, 34 pins Both IDE ports = 2 rows by 20, 40 pins, though I use 80-wire cables on CD/DVD and HD Ordinary floppy, then.
