Connect the IDE cable to the IDE
interface at the back of the
drive. Match the red stripe on
the cable with Pin 1 on the IDE
interface.
6.
Connect the optical drive audio
cable to the 4-pin connector at
the back of the optical drive.
To install an optical drive:
1.
Remove the front panel assembly following the instructions in section
“2.3.2 Removing the front panel assembly”.
The IDE and audio plugs are pre-connected to the primary IDE and
internal audio connectors on the motherboard. If you disconnected these
plugs, refer to page 4-5 and 4-7 for their respective locations.
If you plan to install an IDE hard disk drive, set the optical drive as a
slave device before installing it to the system. Refer to the optical drive
documentation for details on how to set the drive as slave device.
