pins 5 and 6 and a jumper on pins 7 and 8 as shown in Figure 5

Cable-select jumper
Some computers differentiate between master and slave drives
using specially designed interface cables that have the line to pin
28 (the Cable select pin) removed or cut at one connector. The
connector that has pin 28 disabled is used for the slave drive.
See your computer manual to determine whether your computer
supports this feature. To configure your drive for cable select, set
a jumper on pins 5 and 6 as shown in Figure 5 above.
