2 Installing and Replacing Hardware Parts in Your PC Workstation Installing Mass Storage Devices Which IDE Data Connectors to Use Installing Mass Storage Devices The PC has an integrated Ultra ATA-66 controller that supports up to four IDE devices. Removable media IDE devices, such as CD-ROM drives, DVD drives, tape drives and Zip drives, require front access. In addition to the floppy disk drive, your PC can support another 3.5-inch device plus two front-access 5.25-inch devices. Note that one front-access shelf may already have a CD-ROM drive installed in it. Refer to the drive's manual to see if you must set jumpers or if there is a special installation procedure to follow. If you add an IDE Zip drive, hard disk drive, DVD drive, CD-ROM drive, CD-RW drive, or tape drive, you need to connect it to power and data cables. The data cables and connectors provided are shown below. There are three data cables inside your PC Workstation. Two of these are for IDE devices. The following table explains which data connectors you should use when you install additional devices.
