Chapter 2 - Installing the Yamaha CRW2216E Drive

MASTER/SLAVE settings

Before you install the CRW2216E in your computer, you must make the MASTER/SLAVE setting.

This setting is set by inserting a jumper pin in the jumper switch located on the rear panel of the CRW2216E drive.

Important: When the unit is shipped from the factory, this setting is in the MASTER position.

Note: Use long-nose pliers to remove or insert the jumper pin.

Enhanced IDE compatible computers normally have two IDE interface connectors; a primary one and a secondary one.

Each IDE interface connector of the host computer allows up to two IDE devices to be connected. This means that a total of up to four IDE devices can be connected.

Normally, a hard disk is connected to the primary connector, and a CD- ROM drive is connected to the secondary connector.

Important: Avoid connecting the CRW2216E or a CD-ROM drive to the same primary connector as the hard disk drive.

In order to take full advantage of the system's performance, we recommend that you connect the CRW2216E to the secondary connector by itself as the MASTER.
