Installing your CD-R/RW drive
Required tools
• A medium-size Phillips screwdriver
• Long-nose pliers
To install your CD-R/RW drive:
1Turn off your computer and all peripheral devices. Unplug your computer’s
power cord from the ACpower outlet.
Static electricity discharge can damage electronic circuitry. You can avoid
static discharge by touching a grounded metal object, like your computer
case, before and during installation of hardware inside your computer.
2Remove the cover of your computer. Be careful of any sharp edges on the
sheet metal or plastic.
3If there is no other CD drive installed in your system, we recommend install-
ing the CD-R/RW drive in the Secondary IDE port. It is unnecessary to adjust
any other jumpers on the CD-R/RW drive. Proceed to Step 4.
Or, if a CD drive is already installed in your system, we recommend that you
install the original CD drive on the Secondary IDE channel as the master
device (MA), and the CD-R/RW drive on the Secondary IDE channel as the
slave device (SL). Follow the steps below:
