Absolutely. It is a 40 conductor IDE cable that is about 43
inches long, and has 5 connectors on it. One, then about 12
inches or so later the first connector, and every 10 inches after
that another connector. Definitely IDE connectors, no question.

I suspect that it is a bogus cable, however a recent posting from
Andre has me thinking it might be legit for UDMA/66... I'll wait
and see what Andre says...

Take care,
