The second drive is mounted in any convenient spot above or below the first, and the flat ribbon cable going to the first drive usually has a second connector part way down the cable that can CAREFULLY plug into the second drive. It is sometimes labeled 'Slave', and only fits one way. Connect a spare power connector to the drive, and set the little jumper in the back of the drive to either CS (cable select) or Slave. These instructions are for older PATA drives that use a wide, flat, ribbon cable. For newer SATA drives, it mounts the same, and the power is the same, but there is a separate thin data cable that connects the second drive straight to the motherboard SATA connector. The computer should recognize the new drive once it's powered up, and will assign it an available drive letter.
