IDE (Enhanced IDE/E-IDE) is one of the standards applied to the connection between personal computers and their peripherals.
A computer motherboard provides two IDE connectors (primary and second- ary). (Although, some motherboards provide only a primary connector.)
You may connect up to two IDE devices (hard disk, CD-ROM, or CD-R drives)
to the connectorsDrive using an IDE cable. One of the devices connected via the IDE cable is called “master” and the other called “slave.”
