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.
