In order to take full advantage of the higher transfer rates, the standard 40-conductor cable must be replaced with an optional 80-conductor cable. The Compaq Deskpro 2000 Series of Personal Computers will support up to four mass storage devices. The following table shows the transfer rates available with the various combinations of devices in combination with the 40-conductor cable and with the 80-conductor cable: Table C-2 IDE Cable Transfer Rates Number of Drives 40-Conductor IDE Cable, Length* 80-Conductor IDE Cable**, Length > 14" Primary Secondary Primary Controller Mode/Speed Secondary Controller Mode/Speed Primary Controller Mode/Speed Secondary Controller Mode/Speed 1 0 2 / 33 MB/s / 2 / 33 MB/s / 2 0 1 / 25 MB/s / 2 / 33 MB/s / 1 1 2 / 33 MB/s 2 / 33 MB/s 2 / 33 MB/s 2 / 33 MB/s 2 1 1 / 25 MB/s 2 / 33 MB/s 2 / 33 MB/s 2 / 33 MB/s 1 2 2 / 33 MB/s 1 / 25 MB/s 2 / 33 MB/s 2 / 33 MB/s 2 2 1 / 25 MB/s 1 / 25 MB/s 2 / 33 MB/s 2 / 33 MB/s *With 1 drive ≤ 14"; with 2 drives ≤ 18". **Ground-signal-ground (GSG) architecture cable.
