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

These connectors support the provided IDE ribbon cable.

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

or secondary IDE connector, and then connect the gray connector to the IDE

slave device (hard disk drive) and the black connector to the IDE master device.

It is recommended that non-UltraDMA/33 devices be connected to the secondary

IDE connector. If you install two hard disks, you must configure the second

drive to Slave mode by setting its jumper accordingly. Refer to your hard disk

documentation for the jumper settings. BIOS now supports specific device bootup

(see Boot Sequence in 4.6 Boot Menu). (Pin 20 is removed to prevent inserting

in the wrong orientation when using ribbon cables with pin 20 plugged).

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. You may install one operating system on an IDE drive and another on

a SCSI drive and select the boot disk through Boot Sequence in 4.6 Boot Menu.
