Introduction 
TEAC CD-RW Installation Guide 1 
Introduction 
The TEAC CD-RW drive can write to CD-R discs at a maximum of 12X speed, re-
write to CD-RW discs at 10X speed, and read CD-ROM discs at 32X speed. (It is also 
capable of operating at slower speeds, if preferred.) CD-R discs enable you to create 
audio or data discs for permanent archival storage. They cannot be overwritten. You 
can overwrite CD-Rewritable (CD-RW) discs, typically up to 1,000 times.
The TEAC CD-RW drive is a SCSI device...

Configuring the CD-RW Drive 
Before you can install and operate the TEAC CD-W512S CD-RW drive, you need to 
do the following: 
❑ 
Install a SCSI adapter card in the host computer. For optimum performance, a 
PCI bus master SCSI adapter card (such as an Adaptec 2940 or equivalent) is 
recommended. Please refer to the SCSI adapter card documentation for 
installation instructions.

Terminating the CD-RW Drive 
TEAC CD-RW Installation Guide 5 
Terminating the CD-RW Drive 
If you position the CD-RW drive at the end of a SCSI chain, you must “terminate” 
the CD-RW drive; however, do not terminate the CD-RW drive if it is not physically 
connected at the end of the SCSI chain.
If jumper pin S4 is closed (that is, if the jumper is seated on both pins), the CD-RW 
drive is terminated. If S4 is open (i.e., the jumper is not seated on both pins), the CD-
RW drive is not terminated.

5. Connect the CD-RW drive to the SCSI host adapter card using a 50-pin 
interface ribbon cable. 
Be certain to connect pin 1 on the CD-RW drive to pin 1 on the SCSI adapter 
card. (Pin 1 on the interface cable is usually designated by a color stripe along 
one edge of the cable. Also, the interface ribbon cable connector may feature a 
tab on one side. Insert the cable so that the tab aligns with the notch in the 
interface connector.)...

7. Connect the power cable to the power connector on the rear panel of the 
CD-RW drive. 
Insert the power cable plug in the correct orientation into the power connector. 
The plug is shaped so that it can be easily inserted in only one orientation; do 
not force the plug into the connector.
The +5v terminal is on the left as you face the rear of the panel; the +12v 
terminal is on the right. The two center terminals are ground terminals.
