Your Multi-Burner is compatible with the DVD Forum DVD-Multi Recorder specification, and can record
as well as read DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, and DVD-R (for General, 650 nm) media. Your drive can also
record CD-R, CD-RW, and High-Speed CD-RW media, and uses buffer underrrun prevention technology
for reliable CD burning. Your Multi-Burner can read many other formats including DVD Video, Video
CD, audio CD, multiple-session, extended architecture (XA) CDs, and Kodak Photo CDs. The
Multi-Burner is designed for installation in a computer that uses integrated drive electronics (IDE) or
enhanced IDE (EIDE) architecture.
Software description
Your IBM Multi-Burner User’s Guide and Software Disc 1 and Disc 2 contain the following software:
v roxio VideoWave:
This software enables you to record video files to DVD-RW or DVD-R media that can be played in
most stand-alone DVD players. You can also use this software to edit and modify your own video
assets prior to recording.
If you have an analog or IEEE 1394 capture device installed in your computer, you can use this
software to record video from a camera.
v IBM Drive Letter Access (DLA)
This software enables you to write directly to CD-RW, CD-R, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, and DVD-R media
using the drive letter like you would if you were writing to a diskette. You can also format DVD-RAM,
© Copyright IBM Corp. 2002 1-1
DVD-RW, and DVD-R media. With DLA, you can drag-and-drop files, create new directories, or save
files from any application directly to your Multi-Burner.
v UDF reader
This software enables you to install software for reading DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, and CD-RW media on
computers with DVD drives.
v IBM Record Now
This software enables you to copy CDs, create audio CDs, create MP3 CDs, and author data CDs. You
can also use RecordNow to write data to DVD-R and DVD-RW discs for use in other computers or
compatible consumer electronics products.
v IBM Simple Backup
This software enables you to create full or incremental backups of your system files on DVD-RAM,
DVD-RW, DVD-R, CD-R, or CD-RW media, and allows you to restore your computer if it crashes.
v Intervideo WinDVD
This software enables you to play back DVD videos on your computer or to play video files from your
hard disk drive.
Note: Some graphics adapters such as the FIREGL, Intergraph, and 3dLabs, do not support DVD video
playback.
Installation requirements
Be sure that your computer meets the following system requirements before installing the drive:
v Minimum microprocessor: Intel®Pentium®or equivalent
Note: For DVD authoring and playback, you must have an Intel Pentium II 266MHz microprocessor or
higher and AGP 2X Video.
v Minimum RAM: 32 MB (Systems with UMA: 64 MB)
v Windows 2000 Professional, Windows Me, or Windows XP
v An available 5.25-in. drive bay
v An available IDE connection
v 120 MB available hard disk space for programs, and 1 GB available hard disk space for DVD authoring
functions
v Screen resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels required for DVD authoring functions
v Audio adapter supporting 44.1 or 48 kHz sampling rate
v Optional stereo speakers
Before you begin
Before you install the Multi-Burner, read the information in the following sections.
Handling precautions
Use the following handling precautions to protect your drive:
v Keep the Multi-Burner in the antistatic bag until you are ready to install the drive. Limit your
movement when installing; movement can cause static electricity to build.
v Handle the drive with care. Dropping or jarring the drive can damage the components inside the drive.
v Do not force insertion of the IDE or power cables. Doing so might damage the connector or the drive.

Installation and user’s guide 1-3
Installing the drive
Complete the following steps to install the drive:
Step 1. Opening the computer
1. Turn off the computer and all attached devices.
2. Unplug all power cords from the computer and all attached devices.
3. Remove the cover from the computer. Refer to your computer documentation for instructions on
removing the computer cover.
Step 2. Unpacking the drive
1. Before opening the antistatic bag that the drive is packed in, touch the bag to an unpainted metal
surface for at least two seconds. This drains the static electricity from the package and your body.
2. Remove the drive from the bag.
If you must put the drive down, place the antistatic bag on a flat, padded surface, and place the drive
on the antistatic bag.
Step 3. Setting the configuration jumpers
You can configure your drive as master 1, slave 2, or cable-select 3, by placing the jumper over the
configuration pins as shown.
Use the following guidelines to determine the correct configuration for your drive.
v Configure the drive as a master if it will be the only device that is connected to the IDE cable. This is
the preset configuration.
v Configure the drive as a slave if it will be the second device on an IDE cable. Be sure to configure the
other device as a master. In some cases, a hard disk drive might require a “master with slave present”
jumper setting when another device on the same cable is configured as a slave. For more information
on setting configuration jumpers on other devices, refer to the documentation that comes with your
computer.
v Some non-IBM computers use special ATA cables with two wires reversed in the device connectors so
that the drives can be configured by the cable instead of by jumper position. Use the cable-select
position only for computers that are equipped with these special cables. See the documentation that
comes with your computer to determine if your ATA adapter requires that you place the jumpers in the
cable-select position.
If you place the jumper in the cable-select position, the IDE cable automatically assigns the master and
slave settings based on the position of the drive on the cable. You must use the cable-select setting for
this cabling system whether the drive is the only device or the second device connected to the cable.
The drive closest to the IDE controller is automatically the master drive. Any other devices on the IDE
cable must also be set to cable-select.
