Cable Select (Csel) (Hard Drive Recovery)

An alternative option which can be used in place of setting Master/Slave jumpers in the designation of drives in a dual drive configuration. Master/Slave designation is based on the position of the drives relative to the cable. Special cabling is required by the system manufacturer to selectively ground the CSEL signal on one of the IDE cable connectors. For example, when one of the drives is connected to the grounded CSEL conductor, it configures itself as the Master. When the second drive is connected to the other connector, on which CSEL is not grounded, it becomes the slave. This eliminates the need for unique jumpering configurations between the Master and Slave drives.

Cable Select (Csel) (Technology)

This is basically Plug and Play ATA. You plug in your ATA/IDE hard drives and set them to CSEL (Cable Select) and they determine whether they are master or slave automatically, saving you from manual configuration.
