Note:
Refer to your disk drive users manual for information about
selecting proper drive switch settings.
Adding a Second IDE Disk Drive
When using two IDE drives, one must be set as the master and the
other as the slave. Follow the instructions provided by the drive
manufacturer for setting the jumpers and/or switches on the drives.
The CA63-SN system board supports Enhanced IDE or ATA-2,
ATA/33 and ATA/66 hard drives while CA63-EN suppor ts
Enhanced IDE or ATA-2, ATA/33, ATA/66 and ATA/100 hard drives.
We recommend that you use hard drives from the same
manufacturer. In a few cases, drives from two different manufacturers
will not function properly when used together. The problem lies in the
hard drives, not the system board.
Important:
If you encountered problems while using an ATAPI CD-ROM
drive that is set in Master mode, please set the CD-ROM drive
to Slave mode. Some ATAPI CD-ROMs may not be recognized
and cannot be used if incorrectly set in Master mode.
