  Even have a Master and Slave config, that nowadays translates into Dom and Sub of course.

    Political correctness dictates usage of the terms “primary” and “secondary,” IIRC.

      I really tried to make an “official vocab guidelines” “Hot Fuzz” reference but I couldn’t find good proxies for “Police Woman” and “Police Officer”

  No, the IDEs belong to March.

  “Master” Jumper = top
  “Slave” Jumper = bottom
  “Cable select” jumper = both/either

  These don’t look like the Integrated Development Environments I know!

  Am I a bigot for throwing away my last IDE cable last month?

    Yes, and you should be ashamed.

    The curse of needing a glorious IDE ribbon be upon you. A pox on your case.

    I still have some old hard drives that only use IDE, but no computer that has an IDE port. Can’t bring myself to throw them away.

  I wish they still made the disc drives like they used to. I am currently trying to find a drive that has a headphone jack, play button, and can also burn DVDs rather than just read them. But that seems to be really really rare.

  Anyway, these IDE drives used to have a full CD player in them. Unfortunately, on the more modern ones, there’s just the MPC2 connector at the back. Now, that could still be worked with, but playback control would still rely on a computer.
  Many earlier CD drives also included a convenient play button.

  How’s that useful? Welp, I want to put it into a 5.25" drive enclosure that I got. This way I could also (easily) use it as a standalone CD player.
  I mean, imagine having something like those Creative Infra CD drives as an external drive 😍

    I was a bit onto this whole retro CD thing after plowing through my old CD collection, but it died out when I remembered a CD only holds like 50-60 minutes of music 😔 it really is not much, and yeah mp3 etc but then why not a 10€ thumbdrive (I made a rpi that played any thumbdrive you stuck in it) and so on…

    Good memories though 🙂
