The following steps must be performed
to properly install your DVD-ROM:
Jumper Settings
The mode select jumpers are 6 straight angle pins located on the rear of the DVD-ROM.
By placing a jumper on the pins, you can select the following functions:
 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 DVD-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 DVD-ROM to the Slave position (SL)

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. If
DVD-ROM is replacing a CD-ROM, remove CD-ROM presently installed in your system.
Your Toshiba DVD-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 DVD-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 DVD-ROM interface connector:
If you
are replacing your CD-ROM:
connect DVD-ROM to the BUS Cable connector that the CD-ROM was connected to.If
DVD-ROM is not replacing a CD-ROM or is an addition to a CD-ROM:
connect DVD-ROM to an open connector on the secondary IDE BUS cable (not supplied with
drive).
If DVD-ROM is to be slave on Primary BUS:
connect DVD-ROM to open connector on the primary IDE BUS cable (not supplied with drive). |
Figure 3.Installing BUS
Cable |
| Power Cable - Connect an internal computer power supply
cable to the power socket at the back of the DVD-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. |
Figure 4.Installing 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 DVD (see DVD Back Panel photo for
location). Refer to the instructions that came with your sound card
for details on any sound-driver software required. |

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
DVD-ROM to tip of screw). Replace computer cover and all outer screws. |

Software
Driver - Toshiba’s DVD-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.
