Device Connection

The UltraATA 133 PCI RAID is a dual channel Ultra ATA/133

controller that adds RAID support for up to four IDE hard drives.

In order to achieve high-speed data transfer, a 40-pin/80-wire Ultra

ATA ribbon cable is recommended. Also, do not mix Ultra ATA/133

hard drives with slower IDE hard drives on the same channel.

1. Install hard disk drive(s) in chassis.

2. Attach one connector on the long end of the Ultra ATA ribbon

cable to the board's IDE connector and the other connector(s)

to your hard disk drive(s). Make sure pin 1 on the cable

(indicated by the colored stripe) matches pin 1 on the board's

IDE connector and your hard disk drive(s).

3. When two hard disk drives are installed on the same IDE

channel, make sure one drive is set up as Master and the other

as Slave. This rule applies to both IDE channels.

4. The Ultra ATA ribbon cable has two connectors. If you install

only one drive, connect it to the end connector of the cable.

On the other hand, if you install two drives, connect the master

drive to the end connector of the cable and the slave drive in

the middle connector.
