    Doesn't really matter with a CD drive, they only read what is in the drive at the time that you tell them to read it. Hard drives are where you have to worry about slaving drives and the little jumper clips on the pins on the back of the drive.

    Just to add to the great comments above....if you take the drives out you should find a label or such with jumper settings on it.

    You've obviously never installed a secondary optical drive.
