Avoid placing the drive in a location subject to: high humidity, high temperature, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, direct sunlight. We recommend using the drive in a horizontal or vertical position. Do not install the drive at an angle. Don't move the drive suddenly from a cold place to a warm one or raise the room temperature suddenly. Condensation may occur, causing abnormal operation. Make sure to remove the disc before moving the drive. The disc may become damaged, causing data loss. Be careful to prevent foreign objects, such as liquids or metal, from entering the drive. In case a foreign object enters the drive, please consult the dealer where the drive was purchased. Don't interrupt the electric power while the drive is operating. When connecting two IDE devices to the Primary or Secondary connectors, make sure that the two devices are not configured as both Master, or both Slave. If they are both set the same, Windows may fail to run or recognize the drives. The total length of the IDE cable should be no more than 18 inches (about 45 cm). ? - ? ? ? ? ? ?

The Read Speed Control will allow you to select the maximum read speed (52X) for CD-R media, simply by pressing the eject button. Note that this function is only available with a CD-R data disc. To enable 52X CD-R read speed, follow the chart below: Flow Chart User instruction Operation Open the Disc Tray (Push Eject CD-R disc Load CD-R Disc (Put Close Disc (Push and seconds) Tray The LED indicator turns Initialize 52X READ / on button) on Tray) hold the button for eject more than 3 for 3 seconds.

The Read you to select the 48X maximum read Speed speed Control will allow for CD-RW Data CD. speed Ejecting this disc or turning off the PC will disable the 52X maximum read function. The drive will default back to the 40X CD-R read speed. speed CAUTION: The quality of CD-R data disc varies significantly from brand to brand (or brandless), as well as disc condition used over time. A disc that is poorly balanced that may have cracks in it greatly increases the chance of disc failure or disc shatter when being read back at speeds higher than 40X, possibly causing damage to the drive. Closely inspect discs you plan to use in the drive for any abnormalities or cracks. If you hear strange noise or sounds from the drive during operation, this could be a sign of an unbalanced or damaged disc and it should be removed immediately.
