Set the master/slave jumpers
Will the tape drive be sharing the secondary IDE port with any other

devices?
If a compatible ATAPI device, such as a CD-ROM, is already attached

to your secondary IDE port (see

figure 2

) make sure that the existing

ATAPI device is configured as a “master.” Configure the tape drive

as a “slave,” (see

figure 4

).

If your tape drive will be the only device on the IDE cable, you need

to configure your tape drive as a “master” (see

figure 4

).

If your IDE cable supports “Cable Select,” configure the drive for

“Cable Select” (see

figure 4

). The second ATAPI device must also be

configured for “Cable Select.”

Note:

Do not attach your tape drive to an IDE port that is being

used by a hard disc or a sound card.
