TOSHIBA ATAPI CD-ROM Drive
Your CD-ROM Drive
This manual guides you gently through the process of setting up the drive and fitting the
drive into your computer. But don’t worry! Take one step at a time and read each section
all the way through before you start.
Your Toshiba ATAPI CD-ROM Drive
Toshiba’s ATAPI CD-ROM drives are among the most advanced available today. Their
features include:
❑
Tray operation. No fiddly and expensive caddy to wrestle with – just open
the tray, drop in a disk and close the tray again
❑
Enhanced IDE (ATAPI) interface. Just connect the drive to an existing IDE
controller, load the supplied drivers and go (see page 12).
The enclosed Performance Specification booklet includes full details of access times and
electrical characteristics of your drive.
What Happens Next?
This manual shows you how to set up and install your CD-ROM drive. You will need a
small cross-head screwdriver and enough room to take the case off your computer.
NOTE
Before you work through the following steps, switch off the
computer and disconnect it from the mains power supply.
The first step is to check if you can attach the CD-ROM drive to your computer as it is
now - or if you will need a second controller card from your computer supplier.
