Both are connected to the Motherboard. Masters are designated as such, as those that may have your Windows installed or what your computer is running off, while slaves are being ''used'' or "being" run off (to the best of my knowledge).
Master and Slave configuration is necessary for motherboard in order to choose right disk to boot from.
Each IDE slot can handle two drives. One drive will be the master and the other will be the slave depending o the configuration. If the jumpers of one drive is configured to set the drive as MA (Master), the second must be configured to SL (Slave). Both drives may be configured as CS (Cable Select), if so, The positioning on the ribbon cable will determine whic one is the master and which is the slave
The type of drive that uses master and slave connections is the IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) drive, also known as PATA (Parallel ATA). In this configuration, two drives can be connected to a single IDE channel, with one designated as the "master" and the other as the "slave." This setup allows for efficient data transfer between the drives and the motherboard. However, this technology has largely been replaced by SATA (Serial ATA) drives, which do not use the master/slave configuration.

Answer: When using an 80-conductor cable-select cable, the drive nearest the motherboard is the master, and the drive farthest from the motherboard is the slave. You can recognize a cable-select cable by a small hole somewhere in the the data cable or by labels (master or slave) on the connectors. -CompTIA A+ Guide to Hardware, Managing, Maintaining, and Troubleshooting Fifth Edition 2010 copyright - Jean Andrews, Ph.D.
To the IDE cable, 2 Hard disks can be connected as Master and Slave.(Hard disks that support IDE). 4 SATA ports could be used for 4 Hard Disks.
no. the clutch master cylinder is under the hood, typically near the brake master cylinder, and the slave cylinder is underneath, connected to the fork and throwout bearing on the transmission.
Four. A master device and a slave device on each PATA chain.
the master and slave cylinder are a built in unit,there is no cable between them. there are piston'fluid connected. you can buy a rebuild kit for $9.00. But it is much better to buy a rebuilt master cylinder than try to rebuild it. Especially on ABS master cyclinders.
The jumpers on each drive have been set to either Master or Slave, or the drive jumpers have been sent to Cable Select the bios will select the first connector as Master and second connector as Slave
No, he was a slave who escaped from his master.
4 Each PATA connection (also referred to as IDE) can support 2 items: a primary and a secondary (or called Master/Slave) Look on the back of a CD Rom and you'll see a jump to set to Master or Slave.
