If you place the jumper in the cable-select position, the IDE cable automatically assigns the master and

slave settings based on the position of the drive on the cable. You must use the cable-select setting for

this cabling system whether the drive is the only device or the second device connected to the cable.

The drive closest to the IDE controller is automatically the master drive. Any other devices on the IDE

cable must also be set to cable-select.

Step 4. Mounting the drive in the bay

Attention

Be sure to use the M3 x 5-mm mounting screws in the option package when securing screws

directly into the drive. Using screws that are too long might damage the drive.

You can mount the drive horizontally or vertically in the computer. If you mount the drive vertically, you

must secure any discs that you place into the drive before the drive tray is closed, or the drive will not be

able to read the disc properly.

1. Slide the drive into the bay. Your computer might have required procedures for installing storage

devices. For more information on storage devices, refer to the documentation that comes with your

computer.

2. Align the drive-bay screw holes with the threaded holes in the drive housing or mounting bracket.

3. Thread the screws in loosely to check their position. Two screws are usually used on each side. Verify

that the alignment is correct; then tighten the screws to secure the drive. Do not overtighten.

Step 5. Attaching the cables to the drive

The following diagram shows where to connect the cables to the drive.

1. Attach a 40-pin IDE-cable connector 1to the IDE connector on the drive. Align the cable so that the

color-coded edge is closest to the power cable connector 2. Use the 80-conductor high speed IDE

cable that is provided with this option if there is no cable attached to the IDE port, if there is only one

device connector on the computer IDE cable, or if the existing cable in your computer is a low-speed

40-conductor type. The IDE cable can have up to three connectors. For the best signal quality when

you are connecting only one device to the IDE cable, connect one end of the cable to the IDE port,

and connect the other end of the cable to the device. Do not use the middle connector.

If you are connecting two devices to the IDE cable, connect one end of the cable to the IDE port, and

connect the master and slave devices to the remaining connectors on the other end. Many computers

have two cables for attaching up to four ATA devices. For best performance, attach fast devices (hard

disk drives) to the cable that is connected to the primary IDE port, and connect the drive or other

slower devices (CD-ROM drives, tape drives, diskette drives) to the cable that is connected to the

secondary IDE port.

2. Attach a four-pin power cable 2to the power connector on the drive.

Be sure that the cables will not be pinched or crowded by the computer cover and that all other cable

and power connections are secure.
