Serial and Parallel ATA Drive Guidelines and Features
4.2.5 PATA Cable Layout
The faces of industry-standard cable connectors are color-coded for easy recognition:
■
System board connector = blue face
■
Device 0 connector = black face
■
Device 1 connector = gray face
✎
The color code of an industry-standard cable is applicable only if the drive’s jumper is in the
cable-select position.
Single-Drive Cable
Two-Drive Cable
On a two-drive cable, the Drive/Device 0 connector is always the farthest one from the system
board connector and the Drive/Device 1 connector is always the closest to the system board
connector.
✎
Some cables may be labeled “Drive 0” instead of “Device 0” and “Drive 1” instead of
“Device 1”.
4.3 PATA Drive Installation Guidelines
Most computer system boards have two or fewer Parallel ATA (PATA) channels with a
dedicated connector for each channel. When two channels are present, one is designated as the
Primary and the other as the Secondary Channel.
Each of the two channels can have up to two devices attached to it. All drives are connected to a
channel using an industry-standard 80-conductor cable.
✎
The industry standard 1.44 MB diskette drive has its own separate channel and is not included as
a part of the maximum four drives.
