Not at all.
Usually you only have to re-format/re-install when you change major hardware, such as primary hard drive, motherboard and sometimes processors.
You shouldn't have to worry about reformating simply for an optical drive. Just, enjoy it.

you mean reinstalled the OS I assume
see the Optimizing Physical Configuration section of the Partitioning and Optimizing Tutorial in the Data Storage FAQ
and while it doesnt spell out the specifics of how you set jumpers and identify channels, you should be able to figure that out from the instructions included with the drive
