Prepare the hard disk you want to add.

Purchase an E-IDE hard disk drive.

Set the jumper setting in the slave hard to SL: Slave.

The jumper settings differ from one hard disk drive to another, so make sure you follow the jumper setting information on top of the drive.

Always wear gloves to avoid injury when disassembling the computer.

If the master hard drive is set to CS(Cable Select), the slave drive must also be set to CS(Cable Select).

Using screws other than the ones provided with the hard disk drive can damage the drive. Using longer or thicker screws can be fatal to the disk drive. A hard disk drive must be mounted securely in order to provide reliable performance. 72 System Expansion
