Top plug to master. Middle to slave.
rite, but the thing is, the 5.25' rack is above the master hd, which is fixed under the 5.25' bays... i hope i'm getting this across. so how do i connect the top ide to master and middle to slave and still be able to reach the mobo connector, which is at the bottomQuote:

Move things around in your tower & or get longer cables. I just ordered a 24" rounded cable.
It doesn't matter which plug you put it on, whichever way reaches. It will work either way round.

WAHOO!
