The following steps must be performed to properly install your CD-RW/DVDROM.
! Set drive’s jumpers
! Connect audio cable
! Attach IDE BUS cable
! Connect power cable
! Mount CD-RW/D VD-ROM
! Install CyberLink PowerD VD™ software (used for viewing D VD movies)
! Install V OB InstantCD/D VD software (used for recording CDs)
SETTING JUMPERS
The mode select jumpers are six (6) straight pins located on the rear of the CD-RW/

CS: – Drive is configured using host interface signal CSEL
SL: – Configures drive as Slave
MA: – Configures drive as Master (default mode)

Mode Select Jumpers
In most installations, jumper should remain in MA (Master) position (factory
default). It is recommended that you install your CD-RW/DVD-ROM 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 CD-RW/DVD-ROM to the
Slave position (SL).
PLACING CD-RW/DVD-ROM INSIDE YOUR COMPUTER
Now that you have set your drive’s jumpers, you are ready to install your
CD-RW/D VD-ROM inside your computer .
IMPORTANT: Disconnect power from your computer system before

beginning installation.

1. Remove computer cover and faceplate if required (refer to your computer
system’s manual for remo v al information).
2. If the CD-RW/DVD-ROM is replacing a CD-ROM, disconnect all connectors
and remove the CD-ROM presently installed in your system.
3. Your Toshiba CD-RW/DVD-ROM can be placed in any free half-height drive
slot at the front of your computer. (It can be mounted horizontally or vertically .)
4. Carefully start sliding the CD-RW/DVD-ROM into the opening with the disc
tray facing the front of the computer. Befor e you push the drive all the way in
you will need to connect the IDE BUS cable, audio cable and the power cable
to the back of the drive.
CONNECTING CABLES
Cable Locations on Rear of CD-RW/DVD-ROM
IDE BUS (Data) Cable - Most computer system have a primary and secondary
IDE BUS cable already installed (an IDE BUS cable is include with your kit if your
system does not have a secondary IDE BUS cable).
If you are replacing a CD-ROM: connect the CD-R W/D VD-ROM dri ve using the
BUS cable that the CD-ROM was connected to. Insure that the jumper setting of
the CD-RW/D VD-R OM is the same as the CD-R OM dri ve you are replacing.
If the CD-RW/DVD-ROM is not replacing a CD-ROM and/or is in addition to a
CD-ROM: locate the secondary IDE BUS cable in your system. If your system
does not have a secondary IDE BUS cable installed, you will need to install the
IDE BUS cable that was included with your kit.
Installing secondary IDE BUS cable: locate the secondary IDE BUS connector on your system’s motherboard (refer to your system’s documentation for
location). Connect one end of the IDE BUS cable to motherboard, assuring
that it is keyed properly and that cable’s colored edge is aligned with Pin 1.

Page 10
Connect secondary IDE BUS cable to CD-R W/DVD-R OM drive, assuring that pin
1 of the cable (side with red stripe) is connected to pin 1 on the drive.
• If the CD-RW/DVD-ROM is the only drive connected on the secondary IDE
BUS cable: connect drive to the last set of pins on IDE BUS cable.
• If there is a device (i.e. CD-ROM) connected to the secondary IDE BUS
cable: connect CD-RW/DVD-R OM to the open middle connector . The CD-
R W/DVD-ROM drive should then be jumpered to SL (sla ve) position.
If the CD-RW/D VD-ROM is to be the slave on the Primary B US: connect the CD-
RW/D VD-R OM to the open connector on the primary IDE BUS cable. The CD-RW/
DVD-ROM drive should be jumpered to the SL (sla ve) position. Note: the primary
IDE BUS cable, in most cases, will be connected to your hard drive. The hard
drive will be the Master on the primary BUS.
Power Cable - Inside your computer system, locate an unused power supply cable.
Connect the power cable to the power socket at the back of the CD-RW/DVDROM. One side of the plug has chamfered edges, so the power connector fits only
one way so be sure to insert the DC power plug in the correct direction. Push plug
completely into the socket making sure the plug fits correctly.
Audio Cable - Connecting your CD-RW/DVD-ROM to your sound card allows
you to play audio CDs on your computer (speakers or headphones are also needed).
If the CD-RW/D VD-ROM is in addition to a CD-R OM: If you choose to have both
a CD-ROM and CD-RW/DVD-ROM installed in your system, in most circumstances, only one audio cable can be used (there are some sound cards that will
allow you to have two audio connections). You must decide which device you
would like to hear audio from and connect the audio cable from the sound card to
the CD-ROM or CD-RW/DVD-ROM (DVD audio is transmitted through the data
cable, not the audio cable).
If the CD-RW/D VD-ROM is to be the only CD-R OM device in your system:
• If replacing a CD-ROM that had an audio cable connection: connect CDRW/DVD-ROM drive to the audio cable that the CD-ROM was connected.
Cable connects to the analog audio connector at the left rear of the CD-R W/
DVD-ROM (see Cable Location photo on page 3 for location).
• If you do not have an audio cable presently in your system: connect the CDRW/DVD-ROM using the audio cable that was included with this kit. Connect one end to your sound card and the other end to the analog audio connector at the left rear of the CD-R W/DVD-R OM (see Cable Location photo on
page 3 for location). Refer to the instructions which came with your sound
card for details on any sound-driver software required.

COMPLETING INSTALLATION
After you have connected all the necessary cables, push the CD-RW/DVD-ROM
completely into the computer’s drive slot. Mount the drive per your computer’s
instructions using the screws included in your kit. If you are using other screws,
assure that the screw length does not exceed 3±0.5mm (measured from outside
surface of side or bottom of CD-RW/DVD-ROM to tip of screw). Replace the
computer cover and all outer screws.
