EIDE Subsystem: Dell™ Dimension™ XPS T
xxx and T xxx r Systems Reference
The enhanced integrated drive electronics (EIDE) subsystem includes 2 EIDE interfaces (primary and secondary), each of which can support up to
2 EIDE devices such as high-capacity EIDE hard-disk drives, CD-ROM drives, and tape drives.
Configure all EIDE devices for the Cable Select jumper position, which assigns master and slave status to devices by their position on the
interface cable. In this configuration, the drive attached to the last connector on the interface cable is the master or boot drive (drive 0) and the
drive attached to the middle connector on the interface cable is the slave drive (drive 1). Refer to the drive
’ s documentation for instructions on
setting the Cable Select jumper position.
When you replace a drive, refer to the jumpers on the original drive to set the jumpers on the replacement drive.
