Small Mini-Tower Computer
IDE Drive Addressing
All IDE devices require that you configure the cable select setting, which
assigns master and slave status to devices according to their position on the
interface cable. You usually configure a drive for cable select by setting a
jumper or switch, depending on the drive. Refer to the drive documentation
in your upgrade kit for information on configuring devices for the cable
select setting. When you connect two IDE devices to a single IDE interface
cable and configure them for the cable select setting, the device attached to
the last connector on the interface cable is the master or boot device (drive
0), and the device attached to the middle connector on the interface cable
is the slave device (drive 1).
