PLACING DVD-ROM INSIDE YOUR COMPUTER
Now that you have set the jumpers, you are ready to install your DVD-
ROM inside your computer.
IMPORTANT: Disconnect power from your computer system before
beginning installation.
Remove computer cover and faceplate if required. Refer to your com-
puter system's manual for removal information. If DVD-ROM is replac-
ing a CD-ROM, remove CD-ROM presently installed in your system.
Your Toshiba DVD-ROM can be placed in any free half-height drive slot
at the front of your computer. (It can be mounted horizontally or verti-
cally.)
Carefully start sliding the DVD-ROM into the opening with the disc tray
facing the front of the computer. Before you push the drive all the way in
you will need to connect the IDE BUS cable, Audio cable and the Power
cable on the back of the drive.

ROM: connect DVD-ROM to an open connector on the secondary IDE
BUS cable (not supplied with kit).
