The motherboard has a 32-bit Enhanced PCI IDE Controller that 
provides PIO Mode 0~4, Bus Master, and Ultra DMA 33/66/100/133 
functionality.  
The IDE connectors can connect a master and a slave drive, so you 
can connect up to two hard disk drives. The first hard drive should 
always be connected to IDE1.
