2. ICH7 Primary IDE connector (40-1 pin PRI_IDE)

This connector is for an Ultra DMA 100/66 signal cable. The Ultra

DMA 100/66 signal cable has three connectors: a blue connector for

the primary IDE connector on the motherboard, a black connector

for an Ultra DMA 100/66 IDE slave device (optical drive/hard disk

drive), and a gray connector for an Ultra DMA 100/66 IDE master

device (hard disk drive). If you install two hard disk drives, you must

configure the second drive as a slave device by setting its jumper

accordingly. Refer to the hard disk documentation for the jumper

settings.

• 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 100/66 IDE devices.
