Installation Procedure
Determining Drive Connection and Jumper Settings
1.
Turn off the computer, disconnect the power cable and remove the cover.
2.
Check your hardware configuration to find the appropriate LS-120 jumper
setting.
Check the motherboard and IDE cables to see if there is an IDE connector
available, then find the correct jumper setting for the LS-120. Be careful to avoid
any conflicts with your existing hardware.
Most motherboards that support Pentium or higher processors include two on-
board IDE controllers: the “Primary” and the “Secondary”. Each IDE controller
can support up to two devices: one “Master” device and one “Slave” device.
Note that the hard disk drive (HDD) that is used to boot the system (drive C:)
will always be the Primary controller’s Master device.
The LS-120 may be configured as either a Master or a Slave device by setting a
jumper. Refer to the following connection diagram and the table for the jumper
location and settings.
