1.10.2 Internal connectors 1. IDE connectors (40-1 pin PRI_IDE, SEC_IDE) This connector supports the provided Ultra DMA 100/66 IDE hard disk ribbon cable. Connect the cable's blue connector to the primary (recommended) or secondary IDE connector, then connect the gray connector to the Ultra DMA 100/66 slave device (hard disk drive) and the black connector to the Ultra DMA 100/66 master device. • Follow the hard disk drive documentation when setting the device in master or slave mode. • Pin 20 on each IDE connector is removed to match the covered hole on the Ultra DMA cable connector. This prevents incorrect orientation when you connect the cables. • The hole near the blue connector on the Ultra DMA cable is intentional.
