The mode select jumpers are 6 straight angle pins located on the rear of the DVD-ROM drive.
By placing a jumper on the pins, you can select the following functions:

In most installations, jumper should remain in the MA position (factory default). It is recommended that
you install your DVD-ROM drive only on the secondary IDE BUS. If you are installing on primary IDE
BUS, your hard drive would then be the Master, and you should set your DVD-ROM drive to the Slave
position (SL)
Drive is configured using host interface signal CSEL
