Onboard IDE Connectors

Each channel connector supports one IDE channel with two drives, a Master and a Slave. The Master drive connects to the connector on the end of the ribbon cable. The Slave drive connects to the connector in the middle of the ribbon cable.

Note:

The ribbon cable used must support the transfer mode of the fastest device connected to it to avoid degraded performance.

Floppy Drive Connector

The floppy drive connector supports two floppy disk drives. The first drive, Drive A:, connects to the connector on the end of the floppy drive connector cable. A second drive, Drive B:, would connect to the middle connector on the cable although systems now commonly only have one floppy disk drive.
