Two configurations are possible.  
Do not attempt to repair the DVD-ROM drive yourself. Contact  
your dealer or local SAMSUNG representative for all repairs.  
If you make any adjustments or perform any operations other  
than those specified in this guide, you run the risk of exposure to  
hazardous radiation.  
CAUTION

The DVD-ROM drive is the only IDE device in addition to the hard disk.  
To install your DVD-ROM drive in the PC, proceed as follows.  
Install the jumper in the SL position (Slave).  
Connect the 40-pin flat IDE cable from the IDE port

2. Always check each disc for cracks before using it. If there are  
cracks on the surfaces, especially around the border of the center  
hole, we recommend that you make a copy of the disc  
immediately and then stop using it. If you continue using the disc,  
it will probably develop more cracks and eventually cause  
irreparable damage.  
Install the jumper in the MA position (Master).  
Connect the 40-pin flat IDE cable from a second

The RPC feature is supported on DVD players and is used with DVD-video  
discs (such as movies). Currently, the motion picture industry has divided the  
world into different regions or zones that correspond to the regional markets  
into which the motion picture industry releases movies. Simply put, RPC codes  
are placed on movies marketed throughout the world, based on the region of  
the world in which they are being sold. These RPC codes help control and pre-  
vent pirating of new movies into other motion picture regions prior to their true  
release dates within those markets.
