    ATA/IDE cable
    « on: March 07, 2007, 03:42:27 PM »
    I went to my local shop to get an 80 wire PATA/IDE cable for my combo drive and I was given a cable that is labeled "ATA 133."  He said it would work.

    Is this correct?

    He is correct, that will work.

      The CDROM drive shows up in the second post screen as "ATA 44."

      Is that right?
