2. Primary IDE connector (40-1 pin PRI_IDE)
These connectors are for Ultra DMA 100/66 signal cables. The Ultra
DMA 100/66 signal cable has three connectors: a blue connector for
the primary IDE connector on the motherboard, a black connector
for an Ultra DMA 100/66 IDE slave device (optical drive/hard disk
drive), and a gray connector for an Ultra DMA 100/66 IDE master
device (hard disk drive). If you install two hard disk drives, you must
congure the second drive as a slave device by setting its jumper
accordingly. Refer to the hard disk documentation for the jumper
settings.
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 IDE devices.
