B-4 Hard Disk Drive Specifications and Jumper Settings
The 2.5 GB hard disk drive jumpers set the drive as a master or as a slave. The drive is
factory set as the master on the primary PCI/IDE channel. The Zip drive shipped with the
2.5 GB 2516 model is connected to the primary PCI/IDE port and set as the slave.
The drive is auto-configurable, meaning that once the master/slave jumpers are set, the hard
disk type is automatically detected by the system and the remaining drive parameters are
automatically set by the system. (See Section 2, “Setup and Operation”) for information on
auto setup using the Autotype Fixed Disk parameter.)
The drive uses one jumper block (J8) to configure the master/slave and cable select options
of the hard disk drive. The remainder of the jumpers are reserved for factory use. The user
selectable jumper and its settings are as follows:
Master/slave drive jumper J8
Master, J8 jumpered between pins 3 and 5 (factory default)
Slave, J8 open between pins 3 and 5
Dual master drive with slave drive jumper J8
Disabled, J8 open between pins 5 and 6 (factory default)
Enabled, J8 jumpered between pins 5 and 6
Dual slave drive with master drive jumper J8
Disabled, J8 open between pins 3 and 4 (factory default)
