IDE connector (40-1 pin PRI_IDE) The onboard IDE connector is for Ultra DMA 100/66/33 signal cable. There are three connectors on each Ultra DMA 100 / 66 / 33 signal cable: blue, black, and gray. Connect the blue connector to the motherboard's IDE connector, then select one of the following modes to configure your devices: Drive jumper setting Single device Cable-Select or Master Cable-Select Two devices Master Slave Mode of device(s) Master Slave Master Slave Cable connector Black Black Gray Black or gray · Pin 20 on the IDE connector is removed to match the covered hole on the Ultra DMA cable connector. This prevents incorrect insertion when you connect the IDE cable. · Use the 80-conductor IDE cable for Ultra DMA 100/66/33 IDE devices. If any device jumper is set as "Cable-Select", ensure that all other device jumpers have the same setting.
