IDE hard drive connections (IDE)
You can attach two Enhanced Integrated Device Electronics hard disk drives to the
Connecting the hard drive
Wire number 1 on the cable is red or blue, and the other wires are gray.
1.Connect one end of the cable to the IDE connector. Make sure that the red (or blue) wire corresponds to pin 1 on the connec- tor, which is labeled on the board (on the right side).
2.Plug the other end of the cable to the Enhanced IDE hard drive, with pin 1 on the cable corresponding to pin 1 on the hard drive. (See your hard drive's documentation for the location of the connector.)
Unlike floppy drives, you can make the connections with any of the connectors on the cable. If you install two drives, you will need to set one as the master and one as the slave. You do this using jumpers on the drives. If you install just one drive, set it as the master.
