According to the specifications for this MB it is possible to connect 4 IDE devices to 1 IDE connector.
But if the picture is correct , it clearly shows 2 yellow IDE connectors.
Or is one of the yellow ones something different.

You can connect two IDE ribbons here. One for HD and one for opticals.
