Since setup can vary from device to device or computer to computer, always refer to the UDMA drive's or computer's documentation for specific instructions. Below are some guidelines for setting up UDMA drives. Additional installation hints for UDMA drives are also provided. Note: If you refer to the UDMA drive's documentation for installation instructions, be sure to return to this document to continue with installation of the software included in the package. Setting Jumpers on UDMA Drives to the Master Setting Each UDMA drive you are connecting to the AAA-UDMA must be set to the Master setting. If your UDMA drive is set to the Slave setting, you must change it to the Master setting. This is typically done by changing jumper settings on the drive.

AAA-UDMA Installation and Hardware Guide
Setting Up UDMA Drives
Setting up UDMA drives before connecting them to the
AAA-UDMA typically involves setting jumpers, mounting UDMA
drives inside your computer, and connecting power cables to each
device.
Since setup can vary from device to device or computer to computer,
always refer to the UDMA drive’s or computer’s documentation for
specific instructions. Below are some guidelines for setting up
UDMA drives. Additional installation hints for UDMA drives are
also provided.
Note:
If you refer to the UDMA drive’s documentation for
installation instructions, be sure to return to this document
to continue with installation of the software included in the
package.
Setting Jumpers on UDMA Drives to the Master Setting
Each UDMA drive you are connecting to the AAA-UDMA must be
set to the
Master
setting. If your UDMA drive is set to the
Slave
set-
ting, you must change it to the
Master
setting. This is typically done
by changing jumper settings on the drive. The
Master
setting is the
factory default setting on most UDMA drives. Refer to your drive’s
documentation for appropriate jumper settings.
