Alexey... Okay, I can understand that you may be a slow learner. Here's some reading material for you.

http://homepages.tesco.net/%7Emacaddict/CompendIDE.html

The point The intelligent people arround here are trying to get across, is that apple used a non-standard wiring, and most people will use a standard IDE cable to extend the IDE.

Try to keep up:

On the apple cable, pin 40 is red.

On a standard cable pin 1 is red.

These cables are keyed. If you extend the cable with a standard cable, an put the red wire where apple had it, that key on the end of the cable is still going to force you to put the red wire at pin 1, not at pin 40. And that would be WRONG, now wouldn't it?

This goes for you too Chris.

Go read, and stop confusing people.
