motherboard.
Connect the black connector (the cable with the two closely spaced black

and gray connectors) to the Ultra ATA master device.
Connect the gray connector to a slave device.

If you install two hard disk drives, 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.

If an ATA-66/100 disk drive and a disk drive using any other IDE transfer
protocol are attached to the same cable, the maximum transfer rate between
the drives may be reduced to that of the slowest drive.
