3. Mount the drive into an available

Installation
To determine whether your PX-504A
will be a Master or a Slave, open your
computer and examine the IDE
connections to the motherboard.
To open the computer:
1. Before proceeding, make sure the
power to your computer and any
external peripherals is OFF and
your computer is UNPLUGGED
from its power source.
2. Remove your computers cover,
following the directions provided
by your computers manufacturer.
Typically, this involves loosening
or removing several screws on the back panel of your computer and sliding off
the cover. See Figure 3 for an example.
QuickStart InstallationFor
Experienced PC Users Only
If youve installed computer peripherals
before, youre in luck with the PX-
504A drive. Use this QuickStart
installation to get up and running
quickly.
Typical Scenario 1: You have a PC
with an IDE interface installed, you
have Windows 98, 98SE, Me, XP, or
2000, and you have nothing installed on
the secondary IDE port.
What to do: Leave the PX-504As
jumper set to Master, attach it to the
secondary IDE port, and go. Windows
will recognize the drive automatically.
Typical Scenario 2: You have a PC
with an IDE interface installed, you
have Windows 98, 98SE, Me, XP, or
2000, the primary IDE port already has
two devices connected and you have a
CD-ROM installed on the secondary
IDE port.
What to do: Change the CD-ROM to
Slave, leave the PX-504As jumper set
to Master and attach the PX-504A to the
secondary IDE port. Windows
recognizes the new drive automatically.
If neither of these situations applies to
you, or youre not comfortable with
IDE installation, read the rest of this
chapter for more detailed installation
instructions.
