Step 8 Attach IDE Drive, Continued
Attach IDE Cable IDE1 is the primary IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) hard disk drive
connector. Both the primary master and the primary slave IDE drives must be
connected by cable to IDE1, as shown below.
IDE1 is a 40-pin dual-inline berg that connects an IDE drive to the primary
onboard IDE connector. This motherboard supports IDE Modes 0, 1, 2, 3, and
4, IDE prefetch, LBA (Logical Block Address) mode, high capacity drives
(over 528 MB), 32-bit data transfer, and fast IDE transfer. These IDE features
are configured in Peripheral Setup in the WINBIOS Setup utility. Disable the
onboard IDE interface in Peripheral Setup to use an ISA ESDI, RLL, MFM,
or SCSI hard disk drive controller.
