You mean IDE = PATA (parallel ATA), the standard from the last century? Do you have such connectors on your board?  Nope! You have to use an USB to IDE or SATA to IDE adaptor ------------- Asrock Fatal1ty X370 Professional Gaming Offline Under test: MSI X570_MEG_ACE | AMD Ryzen 9 3900X | Scythe Mugen5 | 2x16GB F4-3200C14D-32GTZ@3466 | ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FE |
