10. IDE connectors (40-1 pin IDE1 / IDE2)
This connector supports the provided UltraDMA133/100/66 IDE hard disk
ribbon cable. Connect the cable's blue connector to the IDE1
(recommended) or to the IDE2 connector; then connect the gray connector
to the UltraDMA133/100/66 slave device (hard disk drive) and the black
connector to the UltraDMA133/100/66 master device. It is recommended
that you connect non-UltraDMA133/100/66 devices to the secondary IDE
connector. If you install two hard disks, you must configure the second
drive as a slave device by setting its jumper accordingly. Refer to the
hard disk documentation for the jumper settings. BIOS supports specific
device bootup. If you have more than two UltraDMA133/100/66 devices,
purchase another UltraDMA133/100/66 cable. You may configure two
hard disks to be both master devices with two ribbon cables – one for the
primary IDE connector and another for the secondary IDE connector.
1. Pin 20 on each IDE connector is removed to match the covered
hole on the UltraDMA cable connector. This prevents incorrect
orientation when you connect the cables.
2. The hole near the blue connector on the UltraDMA133/100/66 cable
is intentional.
