IDE Signal Cables
Each system comes with a three-connector IDE interface
cable attached to the primary IDE connector, and another
IDE cable joining the CD-ROM reader/DVD drive to the
secondary IDE connector.
Each IDE connector on the system board supports two
devices. The addition of a device to an IDE connector does
not require the replacement of the existing signal cable.
The following figure shows a typical three-connector IDE
cable. If the IDE cable is not keyed with a connector tab,
align the colored edge of the cable with the pin 1 side of the
drive connector.
