80s are cable of cs, most 40s are not unless they are made for cs.

cs will always work but if your concerned on which drive is master positioning makes the difference, just the same as master/slave.

You prefer cs i prefer the traditional way of doing it. Makes no difference, positioning is still key factor except CS is idiot proof. If that person doesnt understand positioning of drives hes still not gonna understand why this drive is his master and the other is slave. Hes still gonna have to resort back to the traditional concept except he wont have to move the jumper.

PS: when i said 80 pin i did make a mistake cause it was late at night, i was refering to the wires not the pin connector
