Installing the Zip® drive as the slave, or second device
| M IMPORTANT! The Zip® Internal drive uses the computer’s |
| onboard IDE/ATA interface. If you are not familiar with how |
| devices connect to the IDE interface, please see Understanding |
| IDE Connections section on pages 36 and 37. M |
| M NOTE: Iomega recommends that you connect your Zip® drive to the |
| secondary IDE channel and not on the same channel as your hard drive. M |
1 | Check the jumper setting on the Zip® drive. |
The Zip® Internal drive is set as the factory default to the “slave” |
configuration indicating that another drive connected to the same IDE cable will be the “master”. This is the way the Zip® drive should be set to connect it to the secondary IDE channel with your CD drive. Verify that there is no jumper on the back of the Zip® drive as shown in the illustration below. The jumper is a small plastic piece that surrounds two of the pins.
