How an IDE Hard Drive Works

IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) hard drives are the most

common hard drives and are the most likely to be installed on

your system. IDE devices have most of the electronics or

“smarts” built into the drive, rather than installed on a separate

controller card or on the motherboard. IDE hard drives have

two main connections – a ribbon cable called the data cable and

a power connection to the power supply. The ribbon cable

attaches to the back of the drive and connects to the IDE

controller port J6 or J7 on the mainboard. Whenever connecting

or disconnecting the ribbon cable, be sure to attach the data

cable so the red stripe points toward pin 1 on the connector.

Most drives also have configuration jumpers at the back of the

drive for setting drive identification and resistors. See your hard

drive user’s guide for complete information.
