Handling Precautions

Setting the jumpers
1.In a one drive system configure the new drive as a Master with no jumpers attached.
2.In a two drive system, one drive must be designated as Master and the other as Slave.
3.When installing the new drive as a Slave set the jumper to position A-B. Check the Master drive to determine if a jumper change is required to indicate Slave present.
4.Before selecting Cable Select (CSEL D-B) consult your system manual to see if this is supported.
