IDE1: Primary IDE Connector
The first hard drive should always be connected to IDE1.
IDE2: Secondary IDE
The second drive on this controller must be set to slave mode. The configura-
tion is the same as IDE1.
IDE devices have jumpers or switches that are used to set the IDE device as
MASTER or SLAVE. Refer to the IDE device user’s manual. When installing two
IDE devices on one cable, ensure that one device is set to MASTER and the
other device is set to SLAVE. The documentation of your IDE device explains
how to do this.
