Record the serial number of your drive. A good place to record it is the inside front

Enable DMA
To achieve top speeds for reading and writing with your PlexWriter drive, Direct
Memory Access (DMA) must be enabled for the drive.
To enable DMA in Windows 95, 98, or ME:

Panel, then double-click on the System icon, then click on Device Manager tab.
You will see a list of devices in your system.
2. Double-click the CD-ROM icon and choose the PlexWriter 8/8/24A Slimline
drive by double-clicking on it. Then click on the Settings tab. You will see the
drive properties for the PlexWriter.
3. Ensure that the DMA box is checked ON.
4. Click on the OK button and then click the Close button to exit the System
Properties window.
5. When prompted if you want to restart your computer now, select Yes for this
change to be enabled and saved.
To enable DMA if you have Windows NT 4.0 SP 3 or higher:
1. Connect to the Internet with a browser and click on the following link to
download the program “dmachcki.exe.” Save the file to any directory.
http://download.microsoft.com/download/winntsrv40/utility/1.0.0.1/
nt4/en-us/dmachcki.exe
2. Once the file is downloaded, double-click it to execute the program. The program
