3. HARDWARE SETUP
9) Primary (Blue) / Secondary IDE Connectors (40-1 pin IDE1/IDE2)
These connectors support the provided UltraDMA/100 IDE hard disk ribbon
cable. Connect the cable's blue connector to the motherboard's primary
(recommended) or secondary IDE connector, and then connect the gray connec-
tor to your UltraDMA/100 slave device (hard disk drive) and the black connec-
tor to your UltraDMA/100 master device. It is recommended that non-UltraDMA/
100 devices be connected to the secondary IDE connector. If you install two
hard disks, you must configure the second drive to Slave mode by setting its
jumper accordingly. Refer to your hard disk documentation for the jumper
settings. BIOS now supports specific device bootup (See BIOS 4.6 Boot Menu).
(Pin 20 is removed to prevent inserting in the wrong orientation when using
ribbon cables with pin 20 plugged). If you have more than two UltraDMA/100
devices, you will need to purchase another UltraDMA/100 cable.
NOTE: The hole near the blue connector on the UltraDMA/100 cable is intentional.
TIP: You may configure two hard disks to be both Masters with two ribbon
cables – one for the primary IDE connector and another for the secondary IDE
connector. You may install one operating system on an IDE drive and another on
a SCSI drive and select the boot disk through BIOS 4.6 Boot Menu.

tion when using ribbon cables with pin 5 plugged).
