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)
That depends on what is the major role of the hard drive you intend to install. If you are planning on using it as system drive you might want to test it before installing OS (check hard drive manufacture's website). Then you insert installation disk and follow instructions you will be given a chance to create partitions and format them. If you want to add it as backup disk or for storage, testing is recommended to. But you will have create partitions (if you need more than one) and format it.
Jumpers are small devices that are used to control the operation of hardware devices directly, without the use of software. They have been around since the very first PCs, and are still used on many types of modern hardware today. A jumper consists of two primary components:Jumper: The jumper itself is a small piece of plastic and metal that is placed across two jumper pins to make a connection, or removed to break a connection. They come in a few standard sizes (and some non-standard ones I'm sure); only one or two sizes are commonly seen on PCs. Jumpers are sometimes also called shunts.Jumper Pins: A set of pins, across two of which a jumper is placed to make a specific connection.
i dont knw....can i get teh answer now :p

The role of a disk drive is to store (write) and retrieve (read) digital information for a computer system. Storage may be either on magnetic disks (Hard Disk Drive - HDD), in semiconductors (Solid State Drives - SSD), or it may use a combination of magnetic disks and semiconductors (Hybrid Hard Disk Drive - HHDD). In all cases, data is retained even when power is removed (non-volatile). Disk drives are located in the Secondary Tier of storage, that is they are not directly accessible to the computer (Primary Tier) but are accessed through an interface such as SCSI, ATA, or USB
It's a device that manages the physical hard drives installed into you computer. Since it's very common when used in hardware RAID, it is often called a RAID controller.

You must perform a Server Core installation before you install the Hyper-V role. For instructions, see the Server Core Installation Option of Windows Server 2008 Step-By-Step Guide (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=100959).
Floppy disks are rarely used today, mainly due to the fact that they are obsolete. Flash drives, hard disk drives, and memory cards all take the role of floppy disks in a more simple fashion.
