Asus P5G-MX - Manual (Page 38)

1-26 Chapter 1: Product introduction
• 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,” make sure all other device
jumpers have the same setting.
