Cable Select Jumper - Seagate Medalist Pro 2160sl Installation Manual

Medalist Pro 2160sl and 2520sl, Rev. B 19

Cable select jumper

Some computers differentiate between master and slave drives
using specially designed interface cables that have the line to pin
28 (the Cable Select pin) removed or cut at one connector. The
connector that has pin 28 disabled is used for the slave drive.
See your computer manual to determine whether your computer
supports this feature. To configure your Seagate drive for cable
select, place a jumper on pins 5 and 6 and pins 7 and 8, as
shown in Figure 5.
