Welcome to TechSpot
Set it as master and cd-rom drive as slave.
There is no 'third' option, the only options are master or slave. Only the ide channel changes. You can have only two devices per channel (ie. primary master & slave, secondary m & s and so on). |

This may make more sense.
Two IDE cables. IDE Cable 1 -> Hard Drive 1 (master) Hard Drive 2 (slave) IDE Cable 2 -> Hard Drive 3 (master) Possible CDROM/DVD (slave) |
