For Jumper setting see > IDE CD-ROM, PD/CD-ROM Jumper Settings
Master/Slave/Cable select - Locked
- Cable Select/Slave/Master (Master is default)
This jumper sets the logical position on the IDE bus data cable.
In a typical single IDE port Personal Computer (PC), the hard drive
would be master and the CD-ROM would be slave. In a dual IDE port PC
the CD-ROM should go on the secundary IDE port as master. In some
systems, the cable-select setting might be required. These systems
use a special IDE data cable to automatically assign the slave or
master setting to an IDE CD-ROM drive or hard drive.
- Power-On Locked/Power-On Unlocked (Power-On Unlocked is default)
This jumper sets the state of the drive-tray mechanism at power-on
time. To ensure that the media cannot be removed from the drive during
and after power-on time, set the jumper to the Power-On Locked position.
(Both of these jumper sets are clearly labeled on the back of the drive).
IDE Data Cable Connections
In a typical IDE PC, the single IDE cable can support one or two hard drives (or a hard drive and a CD-ROM).
If in the computer is currently only one hard drive installed, then plug the second connector of the computer IDE data
cable into the IDE 2X or 4X CD-ROM.
If the computer has an IDE cable with only one connector, remove the cable and use the one provided with the IDE CD-ROM, which has two connectors for two drives.
In some computers, there are multiple IDE connectors on the system board.
The combination of the two IDE ports allow up to four storage devices to be connected via IDE (primary port with
master and slave devices, secondary port with master and slave devices). In this case, use the IDE data cable provided with the
IDE CD-ROM drive and connect the CD-ROM drive to the secondary IDE port.
The CD-ROM drive should be set as master (default).
If the computer has two CD-ROM drives, both should be put on the secondary port (one as master, one as slave). If there are three CD-ROM drives, one can go
on the primary port as slave and the other two on the secondary port (master/slave).
Another possibility is that the computer might not have enough IDE ports to add another drive. In such a case, there should be installed an adapter that
plugs into the system bus to provide more IDE data ports. (Some Soundblaster adapter have the possibility to connect a IDE 2X CD-ROM).
System Configuration Setting
On personal computers manufactured before 1994, the IDE 2X or 4X CD-ROM Drive will not be recognized by the system BIOS and
configuration code. This is not a problem, because the drive will be run by a device driver. However the standard self-checking that systems do during power-on time
will not include the IDE 2X or 4X CD-ROM Drive.
Special note about the PS/VP 6472, 6482, 6484, 6492 and 6494 systems:
These PS/VP systems provide a dual-port, high performance IDE controller. The IDE 2X or 4X CD-ROM drive can be connected to either port of the system. However,
the system configuration code is not designed to recognize the IDE CD-ROM type drives. Therefore, you must manually select a special mode (not the default) to run the
IDE 2X or 4X CD-ROM drive in these systems. This selection can be made through the system configuration utility:
- Select the system configuration utility
- Scroll down to the section 'Mass Storage Devices'
- Within that section are two entries, 'Primary IDE Mode' and 'Secondary IDE Mode'
These entries allow to set the performance mode of each IDE port.
- The mode should be set to 'compatible' for the port on which you placed the IDE 2X or 4X CD-ROM
(connect/define the CD-ROM to the secondary IDE port for best performance)
- Save the changes and exit configuration utility.
Installing the IDE 2X or 4X CD-ROM for DOS / Windows
(DOS Version 3.3 or later)
- Insert the IDE 2X or 4X CD-ROM Option/Device Driver Diskette into the diskette drive.
