Connecting a hard drive, flash drive, or
CD drive
A primary and secondary ATA-44 connector is present on the Matrox 4Sight-II
motherboard, each of which allows you to connect one or two IDE devices. The
location of the ATA-44 connectors are shown in the diagram below:

The following sections outline the procedure to be followed when connecting IDE
devices to your unit.
It should be noted that although both connectors are available, devices connected
to the primary ATA-44 connector perform better than those that are attached to
the secondary ATA-44 connector. If you require the use of both connectors, attach
the devices that you will use more frequently (such as, hard disk drives or flash
disks), to the primary ATA-44 connector. Connect other devices (such as, a CD
drive) to the secondary ATA-44 connector.
