Pin 1 on the connector typically is marked by either a tiny little 1, or a small white triangle on the outline of the pin header. I looked up a picture of the card and it looks like there is a small "pin 1" marking at the top right pin of the connector. Double check before you plug anything in, though. The cable will have a red stripe on one side, that is pin 1. An IDE cable should work if it fits. They are nothing really special, just a length of ribbon cable with a couple of IDC connectors clamped on there.

Ok thanks for that, I think i have found pin 1 on both. Looks to be on the top right of both. Dumb question but does it matter if the ide cable has the middle plug unused?

A 3 port cable works just fine. Both the middle and the end plugs have the same pinout, and it makes no difference if one of them is unplugged.

Thanks guys!

Np! Always happy to help.

Ok so ive got it installed and been fiddling around for a bit and am wondering if i need a driver for the sb0010?
