Figure 1.Mode Select Jumper

CS Drive is configured using host interface signal CSEL
SL Configures drive as Slave
MA Configures drive as Master (default mode)

In most installations, jumper should remain in the MA position (factory default). It is recommended that you install your CD-ROM only on the secondary IDE BUS. If you are installing on primary IDE BUS, your hard drive would then be the Master, and you should set your CD-ROM to the Slave position (SL)

Placing CD-ROM inside your Computer

Now that you have set the jumpers, you are ready to install your CD-ROM inside your computer.

note Important Note: Disconnect power from your computer system before beginning installation.

Remove computer cover and faceplate if required. Refer to your computer system’s manual for removal information.

Your Toshiba CD-ROM can be placed in any free half-height drive slot at the front of your computer. (It can be mounted horizontally or vertically.)

Carefully start sliding the CD-ROM into the opening with the disc tray facing the front of the computer. Before you push the drive all the way in you will need to connect the IDE BUS cable, Audio cable and the Power cable on the back of the drive.

Connecting Cables

IDE BUS Cable (not supplied with drive) - Your computer system should have a primary and secondary IDE BUS, cable with your Hard Drive most likely being the Master on the primary BUS. Connect BUS cable as follows, assuring that pin 1 of cable (side with red stripe) is connected to pin 1 of CD-ROM interface connector:

If CD-ROM is not replacing another CD-ROM or is an addition to another CD-ROM:
connect CD-ROM to an open connector on the secondary IDE BUS cable (not supplied with drive).

If CD-ROM is to be slave on Primary BUS:
connect CD-ROM to open connector on the primary IDE BUS cable (not supplied with drive).

Power Cable - Connect an internal computer power supply cable to the power socket at the back of the CD-ROM. One side of the plug has chamfered edges, so the power connector fits only one way. Push plug completely into the socket making sure the plug fits correctly. inserting power cable

Audio Cable (optional) - If you have a sound card and speakers, and would like to play audio CDs on your computer, you will need to install a CD/DVD audio cable. Toshiba's CD-ROM/DVDs use a standard 4-pin audio cable that can be purchased from most local computer suppliers. The sound cable connects to your sound card at one end and the other end connects to the digital audio connector at the left rear of the CD-ROM (see CD-ROM Back Panel photo for location). Refer to the instructions that came with your sound card for details on any sound-driver software required.

Completing Installation

After you have connected all the necessary cables, push the CD-ROM completely into the computer’s drive slot. Mount drive per your computer’s instructions. The screw length should not exceed 3±0.5mm (measured from outside surface of side or bottom of CD-ROM to tip of screw). Replace computer cover and all outer screws.

Software Driver -  Toshiba’s CD-ROM Drive is "plug n’ play". In Windows, when you apply power to your computer and boot-up, the system will recognize new hardware, and begin installing Window’s ATAPI driver. If you prefer using DOS,  download the ATAPI driver from our web site.
