Tip:
1.
For better signal quality, it is recommended to set the far end
side device to master mode and follow the suggested sequence
to install your new device. Please refer to above diagram
2.
To achieve the best performance of Ultra DMA 66/100/133 hard
disks, a special 80-wires IDE cable for Ultra DMA 66/100/133
is required.
IDE1 is also known as the primary channel, IDE2 is known as the secondary channel. Each channel supports two IDE devices
that make a total of four devices. In order to work together, the two devices on each channel must be set differently to Master
and Slave mode. Either one can be the hard disk or the CDROM. The setting as master or slave mode depends on the jumper
on your IDE device, so please refer to your hard disk and CDROM manual accordingly.
Warning: The specification of the IDE cable is a maximum
of 46cm (18 inches); make sure your cable does not exceed
this length.
