The illustration above shows the master 1 setting, the slave 2 setting, and the cable-select 3 setting.
Configure the CD-ROM drive by placing a jumper over one pair of pins. If your CD-ROM drive has three pairs
of pins, refer to the illustration above left to set the jumper. If your drive has five pairs of pins, disregard the
first two pairs, as they are for factory use only.
The jumper setting positions for the last three pairs of pins are shown in the illustration, above right.
If you are configuring the CD-ROM drive as master, set the jumper to the master 1 device setting. (This is
how the drive is set when it is shipped.) If there is a second device on the IDE port, check that the device is
configured as slave.
If you are configuring the CD-ROM drive as slave, set the jumper to the slave 2 device setting. Check that the
other device on the IDE port is configured as master (or master-with-slave-present).
If you are configuring the CD-ROM drive as cable-select, set the jumper to the cable-select 3 device setting. If
there is another device on the IDE port, check that the device is also configured for cable-select.
Mounting the Drive in the Bay:
Attention: Be sure to use the M3 x 5 mm mounting screws in the option package when you are driving
screws directly into the drive. Using screws that are too long might damage the drive. You can mount the
CD-ROM drive either horizontally or vertically in the computer. If you mount the drive vertically, you must
secure any CDs you place into the drive before the drive tray is closed, or the CD-ROM drive will not be able
to read the CD properly.
1. Slide the drive into the bay. Your system may have specific required procedures for installing storage
devices. Refer to the documentation that came with your system for further instructions.
2. Align the drive-bay screw holes with the threaded holes in the drive housing or mounting bracket. Be sure
to use the M3 x 5mm mounting screws provided with this drive. Using the wrong size screws might damage
the drive.
3. Thread the screws in loosely to check their position. Usually two screws are used on each side. Check to
make sure the alignment is correct, then tighten the screws to secure the drive. Do not overtighten.
Attaching the Cables to the Drive:
1. Connect the cables to the CD-ROM drive as follows:
