System requirements 
 

Your Drive supports all major operating systems (with 
the exception of Windows 3.1x) and all major hardware 
platforms. To get the full performance it is 
recommended to use a system environment which’s 
computing power is equivalent to an IBM compatible 
PC with a Pentium II CPU with 300MHz clock frequency 
or more, 64MByte RAM or more and a fixed disk with 
an access time of 12ms or less. 
 

 
 

Important: 

To use the Drive, an IDE (ATAPI) controller is 
required. The necessary drivers are shipped 
with the corresponding controller card or they 
are available from the manufacturer of the 
controller.  
 
Please do not install your Drive near sources 
of radiating heat like hard disks. 

 
 
 

Drive Installation Directions 
 

There are three possible positions for installation: 
Horizontal installation with the eject button to the right, 
and vertical installation in both possible directions. The 
installation position is not allowed to be tilted more than 
5 degrees out of the vertical or 10 degrees out of the 
horizontal position. When the drive is vertical mounted 
an 80mm disc cannot be played.
