2. IDE connectors (40-1 pin PRI_IDE)
The onboard IDE connectors are for Ultra DMA 133/100/66 signal
cable(s). There are three connectors on each Ultra DMA 133/100/66
signal cable: blue, black, and gray. Connect the blue connector to the
motherboard’s IDE connector, then select one of the following modes
to congure your device(s).
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 133/100/66 IDE
devices.
If any device jumper is set as “Cable-Select,” make sure all other device
jumpers have the same setting.
