You can use the media bay cable (see Figure 2-4) to connect your computer to a device

that is either inside or outside the external media bay.

To connect the cable as shown, position the larger cable connector with its shiny metal

lip down, and connect it firmly to the device through the slot in the back of the media

bay. Connect the other end of the cable to the media bay connector on the computer.

For both connections, make sure that the securing clips are fully engaged and the con-

nector is fully seated.

To remove the cable from a device, press in on the securing clips while pulling the

connector straight out.

The media bay supports the following devices:



Diskette drive



CD-ROM drive



DVD-ROM

NOTE: Because the Microsoft Windows NT operating system does not support

DVD technology, the DVD-ROM drive is available only on computers that use the

Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition operating system. If you choose to install

Windows NT on a computer that originally came with a DVD-ROM drive, the

DVD-ROM drive will function as a CD-ROM drive.
