System Components
As you prepare to install drives, keep the following in mind:
■
To remove and install drives, you need a grounding wrist strap and
a Phillips screwdriver.
■
If you remove a drive, place it in an antistatic bag or container.
■
Before you install a drive, see the drive’s documentation for
information on configuring the drive, setting any jumpers on the
drive, and attaching cables to the drive.
■
If you are installing a drive that uses an add-in controller, install
the add-in card before you install the drive.
■
IDE hard drives can be configured as single, master, or slave. IDE
CD-ROM drives can be configured as master or slave. Configure the
drives by using the drive-select jumpers located on the drives.
■
If only one drive is attached to a controller cable, configure the
drive as single if it is a hard drive or master if it is a CD-ROM drive.
If two drives of any type are attached to the cable, configure one
as master and one as slave.
■
You may need to configure the drives you install using the BIOS
Configuration Manager program. Select
Enter Setup
at start up to
access the BIOS Configuration Manager program.
