IDE Requirements
If no drives are present on an IDE channel, the cable must be removed. If only one drive is
installed, it should be connected at the end of the cable.
✏
NOTE
To disable the IDE controller: If you plan to disable the IDE controller to
reuse the interrupt for that controller, you must physically unplug the IDE
cable from the board connector if a cable is present. Simply disabling the
drive by configuring the SSU option does not make the interrupt available.
Installing a 5.25-inch Removable Media Device
Two 5.25-inch half-height bays provide space for tape backup, CD-ROM, or other removable
media drives.
✏
NOTE
Save the EMI shields: EMI integrity and cooling are both protected by
having drives installed in the bays or EMI shields covering the bays. When
you install a drive, save the shield to reinstall in case you should later remove
the drive and not reinstall one in the same bay.
1. Remove the EMI shield by using the finger-slots to grasp it and pull it straight out. Save the
shield in case you later remove the peripheral.
2. Remove the plastic filler panel from the bezel.
