* Before you do the following steps, read “Enabling the IDE Drive

* on the Docking Station”

Enabling the IDE Drive on the Docking Station

If you have installed an IDE device (such as a hard disk drive or a

CD-ROM drive) in the docking station, you must change the setting

on your computer to enable the device. By default, your computer

uses the primary IDE channel for the primary hard disk drive

(Primary-Master) and the secondary IDE channel for a device in the

UltraslimBay (Secondary-Master). You cannot use the IDE device in

the docking station in this default 2-channel default IDE mode.

To enable an IDE device in the docking station, you must change the

default setting to either of the following:

3-channel IDE mode. In this mode, you can still use the hot

* and warm swap functions for a device in the UltraslimBay. An

additional IRQ for the third IDE channel is required.

2-channel IDE mode. In this mode, you do not have to assign

an extra IRQ. However, you cannot use hot and warm swap

* functions for a device in the UltraslimBay.
