4.0 Installing the hard drives
Hard drives must be of the Fast ATA-2, EIDE, or UltraDMA-33/66/100 type if you want to use
them with the IDE controller. For best performance, we recommend that you use drives of
identical model and capacity. By matching drives, you ensure compatibility as well. If you are
planning to use an UDMA-66 or 100 drive, you must use an UltraDMA-66/100 cable (TYAN has
included that cable with the motherboard).
Step 1:
The first step is to set the hard drive to Master, Slave, or Cable Select setting, and install
them according to the table below. Note: Sometimes the Master drive with no Slave attached is
called “single”. The Master/Slave setting differentiates two drives connected on the same cable.
NOTE: Check your HDD documentation for master, slave, and cable select settings
.

Step 2:
Next, you should install the drives into your
Primary IDE controller, and connect the power. Attach one
UltraDMA cable (black connector) to each drive (if you
have a Slave drive, connect that drive to the second
connector (grey connector) on the UltraDMA cable). Make
sure that Pin 1 on the cable (indicated by the colored
stripe) is connected to Pin 1 of the hard drive. See Figure I-
1 (to the right) for an example.
