MS-6201 CHASSIS INSTALLATION GUIDE

3-6

Step 10:  Slim Type CD-ROM

Insert two plastic adapter into the MS-5943.

- Insert the Slim type CD-ROM into the CD-ROM cage.  Secure

the slim type CD-ROM into the CD-ROM cage with the screws.
Don’t tighten the screw for it might damage the slim type CD-
ROM.

- Connect the MS-5943 into the CD-ROM connector.  Secure it

with a screw.  Don’t tighten the screw.  It might damage the CD-
ROM.

-   Install the CD-ROM cage back into the cage.
-   Connect the 40-pin IDE cable from the CD-ROM drive into MS-

5942 secondary IDE connector.  Pin 1 is indicated by red wire on
the cable.

-   Connect the CDIN from MS-5943 into the MS-5942 J14 to supply

the CD-ROM with power and audio.
