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 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. The data cables and connectors provided are shown below.

There are three data cables inside your PC Workstation. Two of these are for

IDE devices. The following table explains which data connectors you should

use when you install additional devices.
