3. IDE connectors (40-1 pin IDE1, IDE2)

This connector supports 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 you connect non-UltraDMA/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 UltraDMA/100/66 devices, purchase another UltraDMA/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 UltraDMA/100/66 cable is

intentional.

For UltraDMA/100/66 IDE devices, use an 80-conductor IDE cable.

The UltraDMA/66 cable included in the motherboard package also

supports UltraDMA/100.
