Normally MA == Master & Single, SL == Slave, and CS == Cable |Select. Make sure that MA is jumpered. No labels on any of the pins, no documentation pasted on the top or bottom of the drive, no manual, nothing. As you, this is the first CD-ROM drive I've ever seen without any docs or labels. Tomorrow, I'll try to google the CD-ROM's manufacturer's name to see if there's a website with the needed docs. Update on Jan. 4, 2004 - I checked the website for the CD-ROM. The jumper was set to CS, so I changed it to Master. There was no change in the symptoms. The timeout problem with the tertiary IDE controller still exists, yet it runs fine on the secondary IDE controller.
