Installing Or Replacing A Fixed Or Removable-Media Drive - Gateway E-9220T User Manual

IDE drives can be configured as master, slave, or cable-select.
■
If cable-select is available (drive assignments will be marked on the cable), the
■
IDE cable assigns the master/slave positions to the drives it connects. You can
override these assignments using the jumpers on the drives.
If cable-select is not available and only one drive is attached to an IDE controller
■
cable, configure the drive as master if it is a CD or DVD drive. If two drives of
any type are attached to the cable, configure one as master and one as slave.
■ You may need to configure the drives you install using the BIOS Setup utility. Press
F2 at startup to open the BIOS Setup utility.
