     X = PK is a Parking position. The presence or absence of this jumper has no
       effect on the drive. Labeling may indicate to place this jumper when
       configuring as a slave. This is to provide for retention of the jumper in the
       event it is needed later.
 

        Jumper Locations

       The Fireball SE disk drive has only one location where user configurable
       jumpers are found. The jumper block is incorporated into the IDE / ATA
       cable connector. Using the jumper pins you can establish the drive
       Master/Slave configuration.

      BIOS Settings

      Special Considerations

      Hard drives greater than 2.1GB may need to be divided into multiple
      partitions / logical drives. MS-DOS versions 4.0 through 6.22 allow a
      maximum primary partition / logical drive size of 2.1GB and are limited to
      8.4GB in physical drive capacity. The file systems supported by
      Windows-95, Windows-98 and Windows NT are not restricted to the
      8.4GB physical drive limit, but special BIOS support is required.
