That's the Cable Select setup for ATA-5 and later, used with 80-conductor cables. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Technology_Attachment#Cable_select If you set master/slave with jumpers instead of using CS the master/slave location shouldn't matter if you have two drives, but if you have only one drive it should be at the end of the cable to reduce electrical interference. -- Markku Kolkka markku.kolkka@xxxxxx
