INSTALLATION
Host Interface Connections
Most current motherboard models have two IDE ports (primary and
secondary), which can connect two IDE cables. Two IDE cables allow you
to connect up to four devices, but it is recommended that you separate IDE
ports for your hard disk and your Dual Digital Storage Drive. This will
ensure that your hard disk’s performance and speed won’t be affected by
having the drive on the same cable.
Jumper Setting
On the rear panel of this drive, you will find three pairs of jumpers: CS
(CSEL), SL (Slave) and MA (Master). Use the jumper cap to set the device
to CS, SL or MA mode corresponding to your PC configuration. If you
connect only one device on the IDE cable, you can set the jumper as
“MASTER” or “SLAVE”.
Cable Select

Master
If you connect two devices on the same cable, set different jumper for each
device (one as “MASTER”, and the other one as “SLAVE”). The same rule
applies to the connection of having your hard disk and another device on
the same cable.
