•A red mark on a wire typically designates the location of pin 1.

•The 80-wire ATA100/66 IDE hard disk drive cable that came with your system has two connectors to support two drives. This special cable should be used to take advantage of the speed this new technology offers.

Consult the documentation that came with your disk drive for details on actual jumper locations and settings for the hard disk drive.
