I'll keep using master/slave. Political correctness bullshit be damned.
Aren't IDE drives basically the only thing that used the master/slave terminology?

I think manger / worker is a pretty easy one. It gets hard though because both of these terms are already used for class names everywhere.
This also works for binary cable or interface connectors formerly known as "male" and "female".
