2.3 Hard Drive Connection
(1). Find out a color line of the ATA 133 cable indicating pin 1 of the connector.
(2). Find out pin 1 of the IDE connector on the IDE hard drive(see HDD’s manual).
(3). Connect the ATA 133 cable to the IDE hard drive by pin 1 to pin 1.
(4). Connect the 4-pin power cord to the IDE hard drive.
Please pay attention to the following important things:
1. If there are two hard drives on the same cable, set one hard drive’s jumper as
Master and the other’s as Slave, or set both as Cable Select Mode.
2. Some hard drive has only Single Mode, but the Single Mode means Master Mode,
so under this circumstance, set to Single Mode.
