Identifying the computer’s IDE configuration

IDE/ATAPI devices can be connected to your computer in different configurations. The following illustrations are examples of ways the IDE/ ATAPI devices may be connected to your computer. If you are familiar with IDE connections, you can use these to quickly find your configuration and go to the appropriate hardware installation section. If you are not able to recognize your computer’s configuration from these illustrations, detailed instructions starting on the following page will help you do this. Iomega suggests that you install your Zip® drive on the secondary IDE channel.

If your hard drive and CD drive are connected to different IDE channels, see pages 11-16for instructions on installing your Zip drive.
