IDE or E-IDE?

Recommended Posts

I should know this, but have only dealt with SCSI and regular IDE drives in the past.

 

I have a Plextor DVD Burner (E-IDE ATAPI) along with its own 80-pin Ultra DMA cable w/blue and black connector. The motherboard is an ASUS with 1 x IDE connector (blue) and 2 x E-IDE connectors (red). ASUS supplies 2 x 80-pin Ultra DMA cables as well w/gray and black connectors. In the ASUS manual, it says ATAPI devices are not supported on the red E-IDE connectors.

 

Which connector do I connect this thing to on the motherboard?

 

Thx.
