CD-ROM Drive Installation
ATAPI CD-ROM
1. Switch off the computer and all interfaced peripherals and disconnect the
computer power cord from the mains socket.
2. Remove the computer housing.
3. Install the drive in a vacant 5.25” slot and secure it with the mounting
screws supplied. Make sure that the drive is not being stressed or bent by
the screws. You can also install your drive vertically.
4. Before connecting the CD-ROM drive to the appropriate IDE interface,
you should ground yourself electrostatically by touching the metal housing
of your PC. Otherwise high electrostatic charges might destroy the drive
and/or electronic components in your PC.
5. The CD-ROM can be connected directly to a sound card, if you have one,
with the audio cable supplied. This allows standard audio CDs to be play-
ed back.
If you have already connected two hard disk drives to your standard IDE con-
troller, an additional IDE controller will be needed for the IDE CD-ROM
drive. This secondary IDE controller, part no. MTM2183, can be obtained at
your Mitsumi dealer. You should, however, check first whether your computer
does not already have an Enhanced IDE controller with a secondary IDE inter-
face.
