4. Connect the necessary cables to your DVD Writer.
Figure: Connecting Cables
(A) IDE Cable: Plug one connector of the IDE cable into the IDE connector on the rear panel
of the drive (the other end should already be connected to the motherboard).
(B) Power Cable: Connect a power cable from the computer to the power connector of the
drive, as shown above. In most computers, you will find free power connectors that are
ready for use. If there is no available power connector, purchase a power cable splitter
for an internal drive.
(C) Audio Cables (Optional): To
use a sound card in your system, connect an analog audio
cable to the four-pin analog audio output connector on the rear panel of your drive and to
your sound card. If your sound board is equipped with the Sony/Philips digital interface
(SPDIF) or Digital-In, and you wish to use the digital audio output from your drive,
connect a digital audio cable in the same way.
