lnstalling a Drive in a n Edema I Drive BayYour system comes with two externally accessible drive bays. You can use these bays to install any combination of the following: a second diskette drive, hard disk drive, CD-ROM drive, tape drive, or optical drive.
If you are installing a diskette drive or a tape drive with a standard 5.25-inch diskette drive connector, you can connect it using the diskette drive cable that came with your system. If you are installing a hard disk drive or drive with a different type of connector, you may need to purchase a different cable.
If you are installing a second hard disk drive, be sure its jumper(s) are set to configure it as the slave drive; the master drive is the first one, which contains your operating system. A table of jumper settings for high-capacity EPSON drives is included in Appendix A. If your drive is not listed or you need more information, see the documentation that came with your drive or contact the manufacturer.
If you are installing a hard disk or other type of drive with a 3½-inch form factor, you will need to attach mounting frames to the drive. If you are installing a drive that already has mounting frames on it, see if it also has a plastic guiderail and metal grounding plate attached to it. If so, follow step 1 on page 4-5 to remove the guiderail and grounding plate. Then go to “Installing the Drive” on page 4-17.

0Attaching mounting frames to the drive (if necessary)
