CUV4X-DLS IDE Connectors

NOTE: Orient the red markings

(usually zigzag) on the IDE

ribbon cable to PIN 1.

Secondary IDE Connector

Primary IDE Connector

PIN 1

IMPORTANT: For UltraDMA/100/66 IDE devices,use a 40-pin 80-conductor IDE

cable. The UltraDMA/66 cable included in the motherboard package also

supports UltraDMA/100.

3) Primary (Blue) / Secondary IDE Connectors (40-1 pin IDE1/IDE2)

These connectors support the provided UltraDMA/100/66 IDE hard disk ribbon

cable. Connect the cable’s blue connector to the primary (recommended) or

secondary IDE connector, then connect the gray connector to the

UltraDMA/100/66 slave device (hard disk drive) and the black connector to the

UltraDMA/100/66 master device. It is recommended that non-UltraDMA/100/66

devices be connected 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 (see 4.6. Boot Menu). If you have more than

two UltraDMA/100/66 devices, purchase another UltraDMA/100/66 cable.

NOTES:

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 UltraDMA/100/66 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.
