Maxtor ATA Hard Drive Installation Manual page 11

Internal CD-ROM, DVD, Zip, and Jaz drives with an ATA interface are
known as ATAPI-compliant devices. If the new hard drive is being
attached to a cable to which an ATAPI drive is already attached, you
should configure the hard drive as master and the ATAPI device as slave
OR both devices as cable select, with the ATAPI device attached to the
2
gray connector on the ATA cable. To avoid potential issues with hard
drive detection and performance, Maxtor does not recommend attaching a
hard drive as a slave on the same cable as an ATAPI device. (For cable
configuration, see "Existing System with Single ATAPI (CD/DVD/Zip)
Drive and Previously Installed Additional Storage Device" on page 14.)
Placing the Jumper
Most hard drives come preconfigured with one jumper in the cable
select or master position. To reconfigure the jumper setting, do the
following:
After removing the drive from its anti-static bag, match the
1.
jumper block on the rear of the drive to one of the jumper
block styles shown in Figure 6.
2. Configure the drive as master, slave, or cable select (CS) by
using pliers to move the jumper into the appropriate
position on the jumper block shown in Figure 6.
If you are unable to match your drive jumper block to one of the styles
shown, refer to the jumper settings diagram on the drive label.
