Jumpers for IDE devices are located on the back of the device, typically
between the IDE cable and power.

Visit http://support.wdc.com/techinfo/general/jumpers.asp
to see a picture of an IDE device(hard-drive) and jumpers.

If jumper settings aren't clearly marked on your CDRW & DVD, then visit
the manfacturer's website to find the information.

Optionally you could also check out these links for jumper settings:
http://webhome.idirect.com/~cati/jumper.html
http://hardwarehell.com/jumpers.shtml
(hardwarehell has a pretty complete list)

Good luck,
