Connecting Additional Drives
You can connect additional drives to your system. You can connect
two CD-ROM drives to each IDE port. When you connect the drives,
you need to assign the drive as the Master or Slave drive. This is done
by configuring the Master/Slave Jumper settings at the back of the
drive.
Do not connect two CD-ROM drives to the same IDE port if
they require different device drivers. The device drivers may
not work together.
This section shows you how to:
❑ Enable and Disable Jumpers
❑ Configure the Master/Slave Jumper Settings
❑ Connect Additional Drive to Your Drive
You need a data cable (similar to the one that comes with your
package) to connect the drives.
