How do I add another hard disk?
I would like to add another hard disk in my PC. I tried adding it but there seems to be a problem. The PC cannot detect the hard disk. Maybe a conflict between master and slave? How do i know about the master and slave thing?
The new hard disk is 60 gb western digital , caviar.
The old one is 20 gb quantum fireball.
I also have 2 cd roms.
Can you please tell me about the IDE cables and jumpers in hard disk to make both disk work (including cdroms) . Thank you!
with two IDE ports on your motherboard you can drive upto four IDE Devices,,,,
Each cable has master / slave….
Dont worry which plug goes where….
Set one device to master, one to slave…. Per cable…
So two slaves/ Two masters….
Also law was passed…. u have to refer to them as primary and secondary… the word slave is now illegal and offense due to the “slavery” in history.
If it can not detect with this, Make sure in bios you dont have to scan drives b4 they are found
2,1GB AT HDD Quantum Fireball ST IDE [1740]
