Installing an Optional CD-ROM Drive
IDE CD-ROM Drive for Servers and Workstations Installation and User Guide
Recommended Configurations
Built-in IDE controllers are designated as primary and secondary. Each
primary and secondary controller can support two IDE devices. If your system
supports 2 IDE controllers, a total of 4 IDE devices can be installed in your
unit.
■
The recommended configuration is to install the CD-ROM drive on the
secondary IDE controller.
■
If no hard drive is connected to the secondary IDE controller, attach the
CD-ROM drive to the device 0 connector on the secondary IDE
controller signal cable.
■
If a hard drive is already connected to the secondary controller, the
CD-ROM drive must be attached to the device 1 connector on the
IDE controller signal cable.
■
A preinstalled hard drive that is connected to the built-in (primary) IDE
controller is typically set as device 0. If you want to connect an optional
Compaq IDE CD-ROM Drive to the built-in (primary) controller, the
CD-ROM drive jumpers must be set to the secondary/slave
configuration.
■
If you have only one IDE controller and already have 2 IDE devices
connected, you must install a secondary IDE controller for this option.
Recommended configurations are shown in the following table. See Appendix
D, “Getting Help,” for information on how to contact Compaq or an
authorized representative to order a second controller, if necessary.
