Ok Hdd0 would be your Hard Drive.
And Hdd1 would be the second Hard Drive or Cdrom etc etc.

The ide are just the cables that connect to your Hard Drive or Cdrom/Burner.
They then connect to the Mother Board..

hope this helps.

Hi

First of all,as KuRuP7 said,IDE is a thing on the motherboard.IDE stands fir Integrated Drive Electronics, a standard formerly known as AT Attachment or ATA.This is a way of integration of hard drives to the computers.If you have further questions about this,please ask.

IDE1 on motherboard stands for first, or PRIMARY interface,a place to connect your harddrives,or optical devices.IDE2 is second interface for another set of harddrives and optical devices,and is known as SECONDARY.

Defined by a standard,only two devices can be connected on one interface,so it means you can have max of 4 IDE devices in your computer,2 on PRIMARY interface,and 2 on SECONDARY interface. This is their setup.

HDD0 is Primary Master, First harddrive, that connects to IDE1
HDD1 is Primary Slave, Second harddrive, that connects to IDE1
HDD2 is Secondary Master, First harddrive, that connects to IDE2
HDD3 is Secondary Slave, Second harddrive, that connects to IDE2

Primary Master is usualy used for operating system,and thus HDD0 is default startup device.New BIOS' have startup from all HDD0 thru HDD3, CD-ROM,Network,possibly modem,and potentialy other devices.

I hope this helped clarify some things up.

Cheers

Most likely your main hard disk is the one that Windows is booting off, if you want to find out which one is which if you have two hards drives listen to the different hard drives to find out which one is more active when Windows is on it's bootscreen, this is a possible solution but can be wrong.
