hardnrg Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 primary master (end connector, usually black) : hard-drive primary slave (middle connector, usually grey) : <nothing> 2ndary master (end connector, usually black) : cd-rom 2ndary slave (middle connector, usually grey) : <nothing> enable dma, set both jumpers to either "master" or "cable-select" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
