I am not sure how to translate it in this context. There must a special IT term.
"Da die IDE-Anschlüsse an der Seite eine Ausbuchtung haben, können die Stecker nur in ihrer vorgesehenen Ausrichtung eingfügt werden."

Ausbuchtung (Kabel) und Einkerbung (Port-Anschluss) sollten beide vorhanden sein, damit die 40 Kontakte in der richtigen Reihenfolge zusammengeschlossen werden (sonst funktioniert zB die Festplatte nicht!).

Two caveats, however: The IDE ribbon cable inside the box lacked a tongue to ensure proper alignment.
