4. Set your drive as either the Master or Slave (default) drive by placing the jumper
cap on the desired jumper.

6. Connect an unused power supply cable to the back of your CD-ROM Drive.
7. Connect the 40-pin IDE ribbon cable to the back of your CD-ROM Drive. Make
sure that the red stripe on the cable is aligned to Pin 1 of the IDE connector.

Analog Audio line out connector. If you do not have a sound card, plug earphones,

CD-ROM’s front panel. Set the volume controls of your drive and powered/self-
amplified speakers to minimum before starting or restarting your computer.
