Installing Mass Storage Devices

The PC has an integrated Ultra ATA-100 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 three
front-access 5.25-inch devices. Note that one front-access shelf may already
have a CD-ROM drive installed in it.
You can physically install up to four hard disk drives in the minitower
chassis. The internal hard disk shelves support up to two 15 Krpm drives.
You can install two other 7.2 or 10 Krpm hard drives in the 5¼ inch bays
using a hard drive tray kit (must be ordered separately).
Refer to the drive's manual to see if you must set jumpers or if there is a
special installation procedure to follow.
Cables and Connectors (all models)
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.
