4-24 Upgrading Your System
Removable Media Devices
A variety of IDE and SCSI removable media devices can be installed in
peripheral bays A, B, C, D, and E. An IDE CD-ROM is always mounted in bay
A of the tower system or bay D of the rack system. A 3.5-inch diskette drive is
always mounted in bay C. Other devices should be installed in the first available
bay from the top (bay B of the tower system or bay E of the rack system).
Contact your sales representative or dealer for a list of approved devices.
If you are adding or removing an IDE removable media device, consider the
following:
!
The system board contains a single channel IDE controller. The IDE
channel supports two IDE devices. Your system includes the IDE
interface cable.
!
Cable Sense (CS) device configuration is not supported.
!
Your system includes a two-connector IDE cable connecting the CD-
ROM to the system board primary IDE connector. The CD-ROM that
comes with your system is set as the master device. A second IDE
connector is available to connect a slave IDE removable media device.
!
If only one device is on an IDE channel connector it must be set as the
master device.
