Floppy Drive and CD-ROM
The floppy drive fits in the topmost bay along with the power button. A CD-
ROM can fit into either the second, third, or fourth bay from the top. A
metal clip on each side of the device tray secures the tray in place. Press
inwards to release the clips. The tray slides in or out on the side rails.
WARNING: If using an IDE hard disk drive in this large chassis, it is
recommended that only one is installed and with the shortest IDE cable
possible. Long IDE cables will cause poor signal. Select “...PIO/DMA Mode
: 3/1” in BIOS CHIPSET FEATURES SETUP for a more stable IDE operation.

Floppy Drive and Storage Device Spacers
Spacers are required for cosmetics only. A floppy drive spacer is used to
cover the floppy drive and power button. A standard storage device spacer
is used to cover the CD-ROM, tape drive, or additional CD-ROMs. You
should purchase an extra spacer for each storage device.
