IDE was original terminology used for drives of less than 540mb, ExtendedIDE is the terminology attached to drives larger than 540mb.
Totally irrelevant these days as all drives are in reality EIDE but for sake of simplicity they are just referred to as IDE.
Just fit the damn drive, set as Master in the case and hey presto - an external USB drive.
