Jumpers are used with the IDE (aka P-ATA) drives (hard disks or other drives like DVD recorder) . There can be two drives on the same cable with this norm, a master and a slave. The controller of the disk need to know if it is supposed to be the master or the slave. Jumpers are set to this purpose. There is a special mode called "cable select" where the position on the cable determines the mode (disk at the end of the cable is master, disk in the middle of the cable is slave)
The head(s) in floppy drives make physical contact with the floppy disk surface, while the heads in hard disk drives fly over the hard disk surface on a cushion of air created by the platter rotation speed. All other features of the devices are similar.
that happened to me before you either dont have a hard drive or your disk is dirty
1Tb hard disk supports but its not guaranteed to work perfectly it may cause problems to mother board the preferred one is 500 GB hard disk. I have checked 1 TB hard disk With D945GCL MotherBoard, but its not working ie. MotherBoard is not Supporting.
You can't because programs do not run on external hard disk drives.
