Master Mode

Cover the two pins labeled MA (see illustration) to set the
DVD-ROM drive as a secondary master drive. This is possible
only if your computer supports four IDE devices. The hard disk
in the computer is set as Primary Master.

Slave Mode

Cover the two pins labeled SL (see illustration) to set the drive
as a slave device if your computer supports only two IDE
devices. If your computer supports four IDE devices, this
setting sets your DVD-ROM drive either as a Primary Slave or
a Secondary Slave.

Cable Select Mode

Cover the two pins labeled CS (see illustration) if your
computer supports a Cable Select (CSEL) signal. You need an
exclusive interface cable for this setting. Refer to your
