The onboard IDE connector is for Ultra DMA 133/100 signal cable. There are three

connectors on each Ultra DMA 133/100 signal cable: blue, black, and gray. Connect

the blue connector to the motherboard’s IDE connector, then select one of the following

modes to configure your devices:

• Pin 20 on the IDE connector is removed to match the covered hole on the Ultra DMA

cable connector. This prevents incorrect insertion when you connect the IDE cable.

• Use the 80-conductor IDE cable for Ultra DMA 133/100 IDE devices.

If any device jumper is set as “Cable-Select”, ensure that all other device jumpers have the

same setting.

on the IDE ribbon cable to PIN 1.
