SETUP – SD-M1401 DVD-ROM
The following steps must be performed to properly install your drive:
•
Set DVD-ROM Drive Jumper Settings:
SCSI ID, Parity, Termination, 512/2K, Power
Connect Audio Cable
Attach SCSI Interface Cable
Attach Power Cable
•
•
•

Daisy-Chaining SCSI Drives (if applicable)
Mount Drive
Jumper Settings
A block of mode select jumpers are located on the
rear of the DVD-ROM. If a jumper covers both pins
on the jumper block, it is ON; if there is no jumper
or only one of the pins is covered, the jumper is
OFF. The jumper settings include SCSI ID, Parity,
Termination, Block Selectability, Test and Power
Supply.
Figure 2. Jumper Block
Figure 1. Jumper Location
SCSI ID - All SCSI devices attached to your
computer are assigned a SCSI-ID number from 0 to
7. Your DVD-ROMs SCSI ID must be set so that its
ID number does not conflict with any other devices
SCSI-ID in your system. In most cases, your DVD-
ROM will be set to SCSI ID 4 at the factory. Also
note that your SCSI interface card in most cases
has a SCSI ID of 7. This following chart (figure 3)
shows the jumper settings for the eight possible ID
numbers
Figure 3. SCSI ID Examples
Parity - In the OFF mode, the parity bit check function on the SCSI data bus is activated which
enhances data bus reliability. Therefore, the jumper should remain in the OFF mode.

Terminator ON/OFF - This jumper turns termination power ON or OFF. If you are connecting more than
one SCSI device to your system, and the DVD-ROM is not at the end of the chain, then terminator
jumper is not required.
512/2K (Block Size Selectability) - This jumper is used to select default block size. When the jumper is
present, the default block size equals 512Bytes, when the jumper is not present, the default block size is
2048Bytes. This is effective for CD media only, not DVD media.
Test - This setting selects the drive operation between normal CD-ROM and CD-Audio player mode.
When jumper is set to ON position, commands from the host computer are ignored. This jumper is for
test purposes only and should be set to OFF for proper CD-ROM function.
Power Supply - Toshiba SCSI DVD-ROM drives can supply power to other equipment on the SCSI
BUS. When the jumper is ON, the drive will supply termination power. If you are not sure if any other
device supplies termination power, it is fine to leave the jumper ON.
Placing DVD-ROM Drive inside your Computer
Now that you have set the jumpers, you are ready to install your DVD-ROM drive inside your computer.
Important Note: Disconnect power from your computer system before beginning installation.
Remove computer cover and faceplate if required. Refer to your computer systems manual for removal
information. If the DVD-ROM drive is replacing a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM, remove drive presently
installed in your system.
Your Toshiba DVD-ROM drive can be placed in any free half-height drive slot at the front of your
computer. (It can be mounted horizontally or vertically.)
Carefully start sliding the DVD-ROM drive into the opening with the disc tray facing the front of the
computer. Before you push the drive all the way in you will need to connect the IDE BUS cable, Audio
cable and the Power cable on the back of the drive.
Connecting Cables
SCSI Interface Cable (not supplied with drive) - The internal SCSI interface cable is connect to your
SCSI host adapter card and fits into the socket on the back of your DVD-ROM. The stripe or red-colored
side of the ribbon cable connects to pin 1 of the drive's SCSI connector which is found next to the drive's
power connector. Carefully push the SCSI connector into the socket, making sure it fits snugly
Power Cable - Connect an internal computer
power supply cable to the power socket at the
back of the DVD-ROM drive. One side of the
plug has chamfered edges, so the power
connector fits only one way. Push plug
completely into the socket making sure the plug
fits correctly.

Audio Cable (optional) - If you have a sound
card and speakers, and would like to play audio
CDs on your computer, you will need to install a
CD/DVD audio cable. Toshiba's DVD-ROM
drives use a standard 4-pin audio cable that can
be purchased from most local computer
suppliers. The sound cable connects to your
sound card at one end and the other end
connects to the digital audio connector at the left
rear of the DVD-ROM drive (see DVD-ROM
drive Back Panel photo for location). Refer to the
instructions that came with your sound card for
details on any sound-driver software required.
Figure 5.Installing Audio Cable
Daisy-Chaining - If the DVD-ROM you
are installing is one of two or more
SCSI devices you are connecting to
your system, you will need to use a
custom built SCSI interface cable.
Remember that the terminator jumper
on the DVD-ROM drive must have the
jumper installed when the drive is the
last device in the chain.

Completing Installation
After you have connected all the necessary cables,
push the DVD-ROM drive completely into the
computers drive slot. Mount drive per your computers
instructions. The screw length should not exceed
30.5mm (measured from outside surface of side or
bottom of drive to tip of screw). Replace computer
cover and all outer screws.
Figure 7.Mounting Illustration
Software Driver - Toshiba's optical drives do not require any unique device drivers for Windows
'95/'98/2000/Me/XP/NT. After installing your drive and re-booting, your system should recognize your
drive. Windows '95/'98/2000/Me/XP/NT Operating Systems support all Toshiba optical drives natively If
you prefer using DOS, download the DOS ATAPI driver from our web site.

Usage Guidelines
•
•
•
•
•
Keep the disc tray closed when not using the DVD-ROM Drive.
Do not press down on the disc tray when opening or closing it.
Do not place objects on the disc tray.
Never use a damaged, broken, or deformed disc.
Do not press the Open/Close button while the drive is playing a DVD movie or accessing a disc.
To stop a DVD movie, click Stop button in the DVD player application program.
NOTE: High-speed drives spin the disc at a high rotational speed. If a disc has printing on only half of the
disc, or if there is a slight imbalance in the disc, the imbalance is greatly magnified by the high speed,
causing the drive to vibrate or produce a fan-like noise. These effects are inherent in the high-speed
technology and do not indicate a problem with the drive.
Emergency Ejection
CAUTION: The following procedure is intended only as a last resort when pressing the
eject button fails to open the Loading Tray
1. Turn computer power OFF by properly shutting down system.
2. Insert a solid bar (i.e. large paper clip) into Emergency Eject hole and push as shown in the
picture below
3. DVD tray will open/eject.
Figure 3.Using Emergency Eject
This procedure cannot be repeated without cycling the DVD-ROMs (computer's) power.
After the media is removed and the loading tray is closed, the tray will not reopen without first turning the
power ON/OFF.
NOTE: Use a bar that is less than 1.5 mm in diameter.
Do not insert more than 50mm in depth.
Inserting more than 50mm may damage the DVD-ROM drive.

Handling Media
DVD media is sensitive to dust and fingerprints. Carefully handle media by its edges only. If a DVD movie
skips or hangs during playback, clean the media. Most DVD video playback issues are media-related
and can be remedied by proper handling and care of media.
Cleaning Media
Try to avoid touching the read area (underside) of the disc as dirt and smears will degrade the disc
accessing speed.
If the disc becomes dirty wipe it with a damp soft cloth. Avoid cleaning in a circular motion, but rather
from the inner side outward.
