• 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 100/66/33 IDE devices.

If any device jumper is set as “Cable-Select,” make sure all other device jumpers have the same setting.
