Step 4. Selecting an IDE connector

Newer computers typically have two IDE connectors. If your computer has two IDE connectors, use the secondary IDE connector to connect the CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combination Drive. Typically the secondary IDE connector is adjacent to the primary IDE connector that connects to your hard disk drive. The IDE connector you select and the cable position you select will determine which configuration jumper setting you will use for the drive.

vIf you have two IDE connectors, connect the CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combination Drive to the secondary IDE connector with the IDE cable that comes with your drive. If the CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combination Drive is the only device on the secondary IDE connector, you will use the master configuration setting. If there is another device on the secondary connector in addition to the CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combination Drive, you will use the slave configuration setting.

vIf you must attach the CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combination Drive to the same IDE connector as a faster device, such as a hard disk drive, use the slave setting for the CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combination Drive and the master setting for the faster device. In some instances, the hard disk drive might require a master-with-slave-present setting when another device on the same cable is configured as a slave. For further information on setting configuration jumpers on other devices, refer to the documentation that came with your computer or with the device in question.

vSome non-IBM computers support the cable-select setting, where the position of the device on the cable determines whether a device is master or slave. See the documentation that comes with your computer to determine if your system supports this setting.

Step 5. Mounting the drive in the bay

Attention: Be sure to use the 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-RW/DVD-ROM Combination Drive horizontally or vertically in the computer. If you mount the drive vertically, you must secure any discs that you place into the drive before the drive tray is closed, or the CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combination Drive will not be able to read the disc properly.

1.Slide the drive into the bay. Your computer might have specific required procedures for installing storage devices. For more information on storage devices, refer to the documentation that comes with your computer.

2.Align the drive-bay screw holes with the threaded holes in the drive housing or mounting bracket.
