If i want to put my burner in a external enclosure USB 2.0 where should my jumpers be Master / or Slave. Inside of the enclosure theres a sticker that says:

The external sub system can operate with Master IDE drive only.
Please set the IDE drive to Master mode before you connect the IDE drive.

I always thought that you had to set it to Slave since I already have a Master drive in my PC. I geuss its different when using USB 2.0.
I have always put my drives as Slave when using enlosures with no problems I wonder why this particular enclosure is different. \
Its kind of confusing but if anybody has any advice on what i should do.
Please Reply.
Thanks in advance to all that do reply

in USB enclosures the jumpers have to be set to Master, regardless of how many enclosures you have.
