    ABIT BH6 IDE Connectors...

    I've read a review that says that the IDE connectors for this board are 40pins vice the normal 39. is this true? If so, what does one do to get around that? Cut the unused pin on the motherboard, or make a hole on the female end of the connector?
    Thanks,
    Dan

    If you are lucky enough to find IDE cables that have a plastic plug in the slot for the missing pin, it's easy to just push in all the way. If the connector is molded then you'll have to either use a tiny drill or a hot nail.
