(9)  Secondary IDE Connector (40-pin block): IDE2 
 

This connector connects to the next set of Master and Slave hard disks.  Follow the 
same procedure described for the primary IDE connector.  You may also configure 
two hard disks to be both Masters using one ribbon cable on the primary IDE 
connector and another ribbon cable on the secondary IDE connector. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

•  Two hard disks can be connected to each connector.  The first HDD is referred to as 

the “Master” and the second HDD is referred to as the “Slave”. 

•  For performance issues, we strongly suggest you don’t install a CD-ROM or DVD-

ROM drive on the same IDE channel as a hard disk.  Otherwise, the system performance 
on this channel may drop. 

 

When J6 setting 1-2 closed IDE3/IDE4 are setting in ATA 100 Mode for Normal 
extra IDE Interface.  When J6 setting 2-3 closed IDE3/IDE4 can setting RAID Mode 
for stripping capable to increase transfer rate, or RAID 1 Mode for mirroring capable 
for data protection.  For more detail description please read PROMISE.DOC in CD-
