PX-230A Installation and Users Manual 19
Select an IDE Configuration
Set the PX-230A’s jumper and cable it according to the desired
configuration. Keep these rules in mind:
• For best CD-RW performance, try to connect the PX-230A to the
IDE port that is not connected to the hard disk drive or to a DVD or
CD-ROM drive. In most cases, this will be the secondary IDE port.
• For best results, set the PX-230A to be the Master, if possible.
• If you have only one device on a cable, always set its jumper as the
Master, never as the Slave.
