• 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 ATA cable connector. This prevents incorrect orientation when you
connect the cables.
• The hole near the blue connector on the Ultra ATA cable is intentional.
