4.4. Connecting the Firewire Drive
Important Note: Before connecting the CRW2100FXZ drive and the computer as described below, make
sure that you have installed appropriate CD writing software (P. 34-35). If you are just installing the CD
writing software, first disconnect all IEEE1394 devices from your computer. After properly installing the
software, you are ready to connect the devices. For information about how to install the software, refer to
the documentation that came with it.
If your computer has no built-in IEEE1394 port, you will first need to install an IEEE1394
interface card (purchased separately). Yamaha recommends IEEE1394Interface cards
outlined in section 4.2 (page 22). You can purchase IEEE1394 controller cards at your
local computer peripheral retailer or you may contact Yamaha toll-free at 888-926-2426 to
purchase a compatible IEEE1394 controller card. For information about how to install the
card, refer to the documentation that came with it.
1. Make sure that the computer is turned on.
2. Make sure that the drive is turned OFF (the POWER switch is not depressed).
3. Connect the supplied power cable to the AC IN socket on the drive’s rear
panel.
