Now that you have set the jumpers, you are ready to install your CD-ROM drive inside your computer.

Important Note: Disconnect power from your computer system before beginning installation.

Remove computer cover and faceplate if required. Refer to your computer systems manual for removal
information.

Your Toshiba CD-ROM drive can be placed in any free half-height drive slot at the front of your
computer. (It can be mounted horizontally or vertically.)

Carefully start sliding the CD-ROM drive into the opening with the disc tray facing the front of the
computer. Before you push the drive all the way in you will need to connect the IDE BUS cable, Audio
cable and the Power cable on the back of the drive.

the CD-ROM was connected to.

secondary IDE BUS cable (not supplied with drive).

If CD-ROM drive is to be slave on Primary BUS:
