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 CA64-LN system board supports Enhanced IDE or ATA-2,
ATA/33 and ATA/66 hard drives while the CA64-BC/BN system
board supports 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.
