Two hard disks can be connected to each connector. The first HDD is referred to
as the “Master” and the second HDD is referred to as the “Slave”.

For performance issues, we strongly suggest you don’t install a CD-ROM or
DVD-ROM drive on the same IDE channel as a hard disk. Otherwise, the system
performance on this channel may drop.
