Installing an Inter nal IDE Har d Disk
This section explains how to install a standard IDE hard disk drive (bare drive) into the A5000/A4000.
• Before performing the installation, please read precautions “Handling and Installation of Options,”
found at the beginning of this manual.
• Consult your Yamaha dealer for information about IDE hard disk models that have been confirmed as
operating correctly with the A5000/A4000.
[Procedure]
1 . Be sure that you have the following at hand before starting the installation.
• Internal IDE hard disk
• Hard disk installation screws (4 pcs.): Available from your hard disk dealer.
• IDE hard disk cable (40-pin): supplied with the A5000/A4000.
• Hard disk power cable (long red-and-white 4-wire cable): supplied with the A5000/A4000.
• Phillips screwdriver: Magnetic-tipped screwdriver is recommended.
• Screwdriver for the hard-disk installation screws: Note that some hard-disk models do not use Phil-
lips-head screws.
• Workbench: Please carry out all work on a stable workbench or table. Spreading a cloth over the work
surface will help prevent scratching.
• Gloves: Be sure to wear gloves so that your hands are not scratched by the metal cover or other metal
parts.
2 . Check the hard disk settings.
• When using an IDE hard disk alone (i.e. when no ZIP drive is installed), the IDE hard disk must be set to
“MASTER” (for information on MASTER/SLAVE settings, see the disk’s owner’s manual/specification
sheet).
• When using an IDE hard disk in conjunction with a ZIP drive, one drive must be set to “MASTER” and
the other to “SLAVE” (for information on MASTER/SLAVE settings, see the disk’s owner’s manual/
specification sheet).
3 . Remove the top cover (page 232).
4 . Remove the four gold-colored screws holding the hard disk mount panel, and remove
the mount panel from the A5000/A4000. Refer to page 240 for “Installing an Internal
SCSI Hard Disk.”
