I've purchased a Traxdata 8x4x32 CD-RW, and can only install it on my main box. Unfortunately, this has two Hard Disks (both on the Primary IDE channel) and a normal CD Drive as Master on the second channel.
The literature with the CD-RW is basic and suggests ways in which it can be installed on those channels already in use. This seems to imply that I shouldnot/cannot use the secondary channel slave, but it does not specifically say so. I have very vague recollections of some advice against putting CD Drives on the secondary slave, but am unable to remember where I read this (if in fact I did!) If I replace my CD with the CD-RW, would I be able to use the later for normal reading and would I require any special drivers? Can anyone please suggest the most suitable way to proceed. I assume Potato (which is what I run) will support the drive - it did so with earlier models. All software supplied is for Windoze, so there is no information of any value. Grateful for any assistance. John.
