NOTE
Do not connect an ATA device as a slave on the same IDE cable as an ATAPI master device. For
example, do not connect an ATA hard drive as a slave to an ATAPI CD-ROM drive.
For correct function of the cable:
• Attach the cable end with the single connector to the Intel desktop board.
• Attach the cable end with the two closely spaced connectors to the drives.
