necessary requirements to write to disc
normally. Under actual operating conditions,
the requirements imposed by your software

The drive does not support ATAPI, therefore
do not connect it to the IDE (ATAPI) interface
connector of your computer's motherboard.

The drive consumes a lot of power when
operating at high speeds. You should therefore
make sure that the rated power output of the
power outlet where you connect all your drives
is sufficient to power all the drives, including
this one. For details about each drive's power
consumption rating, refer to their
documentation.
