Installation

2.Attach one connector on the long end of the Ultra ATA ribbon cable to the board's IDE connector and the other connector(s) to your hard disk drive(s). Make sure pin 1 on the cable (indicated by the colored stripe) matches pin 1 on the board's IDE connector and your hard disk drive(s).

3.When two hard disk drives are installed on the same IDE channel, make sure one drive is set up as Master and the other as Slave. This rule applies to both IDE channels.

4.The Ultra ATA ribbon cable has two connectors. If you install only one drive, connect it to the end connector of the cable. On the other hand, if you install two drives, connect the master drive to the end connector of the cable and the slave drive in the middle connector.
