Installing Mass Storage Devices
The PC has an integrated Ultra ATA-66 controller that supports up to four
IDE devices. Removable media IDE devices, such as CD-ROM drives, DVD
drives, tape drives and Zip drives, require front access. In addition to the
floppy disk drive, your PC can support another 3.5-inch internal device plus
two front-access 5.25-inch devices. Note that one front-access shelf may
already have a CD-ROM drive installed in it.
Refer to the drive's manual to see if you must set jumpers or if there is a
special installation procedure to follow.
If you add an IDE Zip drive, hard disk drive, DVD drive, CD-ROM drive, CD-
RW drive, or tape drive, you need to connect it to power and data cables.
