IDE connectors (40-1 pin PRI_IDE, SEC_IDE)
These connectors are for Ultra DMA 100/66/33 signal cables.
There are three interfaces on each Ultra DMA 100/66/33 signal
cables: blue, black, and gray. Connect the blue interface into the
motherboad's IDE connector, then select the following modes to
configure your hard disk drive(s).

•
Pin 20 on the IDE connector is removed to match the covered hole
on the Ultra DMA cable connector. This prevents incorrect insertion
when you connect the IDE cable.
•
Use the 80-conductor IDE cable for Ultra DMA
devices.
If any device jumper is set to "Cable-select", make sure all other device
jumpers have the same setting.
