That's odd. I just looked at an old WD Caviar 1.2 gig drive I have that is probably 5+ years old and it even has a setting for cable select, and it isn't hard to find where to put the jumper, it is stamped on the board.
I have never installed a DVD drive, so it may be different, but I messed with 2 LG cd writers this week and a Creative Labs CD drive and they all had master/slave/cable select jumper settings plain as day. I would think any DVD player/writer would have it written on the housing somewhere, or at least in the manual.
