LOL. Well, for PATA/IDE disks, you just use the little jumpers. There is a label/guide on the disk on where to place the jumper to make the disk master or slave. For SATA, you decide with port to place the disk on, i.e SATA0, SATA1, etc. For SCASI, it's a little bit more complicated but I believe you are not handling SCSI, because that would be a mistake!:-) -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube

You have to change the jumpers of the two hdd to slave. I believe your hdd has a sticker on top to guide you on how to slave On Wed, Oct 13, 2010 at 6:39 PM, Erick Njenga <eriknjenga@gmail.com> wrote:

primary master, primary slave and secondary master...but in this case you have to do away with the cd rom,unless the motherboard have both sata & ide connectors. On Thu, Oct 14, 2010 at 11:47 AM, victor yegon <viktayeg@gmail.com> wrote:
