The crossover cables I have seen are for MFM drives and for floppy disks. They have a section cable this has a twist in it. None of my ATA cables, eithe r 40-pin or 80, has such a twist.They don't have a twist. They are just straight through cables. The difference is i think one line of the 80 onlygoes to the first connector.
That would go to explain why _some_ manufacturers say the master goes on this connector, the slave on that.
