2010-03-21 00:32:06rev. 2ERROR FIXEDI believe the male connector pinout is wrong -- if the female connector (which I believe is right) were connected to the male controller as listed, pin 1 from the controller (/RESET) would connect to pin 40 on the drive (GND) which isn't right. The "ATA / IDE" interface pinout has the same problem. The actual pin descriptions seem to be correct, but I think the male connector should show the top-left pin as 39, bottom-left as 40, top-right as 1, and bottom-right as 2. Staring at an IDE drive for a few minutes seems to confirm what I'm thinking.APPROVED
