3. IDE connector (40-1 pin PRI_EIDE1)
This connector is for an Ultra DMA 133/100/66 signal cable. The Ultra
DMA 133/100/66 signal cable has three connectors: a blue connector for
the primary IDE connector on the motherboard, a black connector for an
Ultra DMA 133/100/66 IDE slave device (optical drive/hard disk drive), and
a gray connector for an Ultra DMA 133/100/66 IDE master device (hard disk
drive). If you install two hard disk drives, you must configure 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 133/100/66 IDE devices.
If any device jumper is set as “Cable-Select,” ensure that all other device
jumpers have the same setting.
