Jumper Settings for Two
Hard Disks
When using two hard disks
in your computer, make sure
to set the jumper on the slave
hard disk to the cable select
option in order for the system
to recognize the disks (see
your hard disk manual or the
information printed on the
hard disk itself for details on
the jumper settings). The
slave disk will automatically
be in the upper slot of the
hard disk case, the master
will be in the lower slot (as
defined by the hard disk ca-
ble).
Configure the RAID accord-
ing to the instructions in
Chapter 8 of the User’s Man-
ual.
