Primary IDE port

Since there is no secondary IDE port, you must purchase an ATAPI host adapter that provides two ports

2Set the master/slave jumpers

Will the tape drive be sharing the secondary IDE port with any other devices?

If a compatible ATAPI device, such as a CD-ROM, is already attached to your secondary IDE port (see figure 2) make sure that the existing ATAPI device is configured as a “master.” Configure the tape drive as a “slave,” (see figure 4).

Note: Do not attach your tape drive to an IDE port that is being used by a hard disc or a sound card.

If your tape drive will be the only device on the IDE cable, you need to configure your tape drive as a “master” (see figure 4).

If your IDE cable supports “Cable Select,” configure the drive for “Cable Select” (see figure 4). The second ATAPI device must also be configured for “Cable Select.”
