This chapter guides you through the installation of

your new CD-ROM drive. To install the drive, your PC

must have a free IDE interface connector, or you must

buy an IDE controller card from a computer retailer.

(An Enhanced IDE controller card is required if your

PC already has a one-port IDE controller). See

Appendix A

for a brief introduction to IDE

connections.

2.1 Installing the CD-ROM Drive

Here’s how to install your CD-ROM drive:

1. Turn off your PC and remove its casing.

2. Adjust the Master/Slave jumpers on the back of the

CD-ROM drive as necessary. (The factory default

of the slave mode normally should not be changed.

See

Appendix A

.)

3. Remove the 5.25” drive’s drive guard as instructed

by your PC manual.

4. Slide the CD-ROM drive into the drive bay.
