Installing CD-Writer Plus and Software
TIP: (For two devices connected to the data cable) If the Install
Recommendation states that your CD-Writer Plus drive will share the data
cable with another device (such as a CD-ROM drive), follow the cable already
attached to the other device to the circuit board to locate the IDE controller that
you need. If you find an extra connector along that cable, simply attach that
connector to the CD-Writer Plus drive.
17. Locate the recommended 40-pin IDE controller connector (primary or
secondary) on your computer’s motherboard. IDE connectors are usually
found in pairs and may be hidden by some of the computer’s cables or
may be behind a drive.
If your computer has an IDE hard drive or CD-ROM drive, you can follow
the data cable from the back of one of those drives to find the IDE
controller. IDE connectors may be labeled as any of the following: PRI
and SEC, IDE-0 and IDE-1, IDE-1 and IDE-2, HD and CD-ROM, or PCI-
IDE and ISA-IDE.
18. Refer to the Install Recommendation Printout to see if you will have one
or two devices connected to the data cable. See page 10 for examples of
one- and two-device installations.
19. Make the necessary data cable connections for your system.
