What type of hard drive do you have to set a master and slave jumper for?

Some IDE drives have a master/slave jumper, but a significant number of IDE drives defaulted to a "cable select" setting where the drive would determine for itself whether it was the master or the slave by which of the two sockets on the cable it was plugged into.


If a CD drive and a hard drive are sharing the same data cable in a computer system what type of connection is the CD drive using Which of the two drives should be set to master which to slave?

IF the CD drive shares an IDE channel with a hard drive, make the hard drive the master and the CD drive the slave.


What does the slave and master and the rest of the things for a hard drive mean?

To allow for two drives on the same cable, IDE uses a special configuration called master and slave. This configuration allows one drive's controller to tell the other drive when it can transfer data to or from the computer. What happens is the slave drive makes a request to the master drive, which checks to see if it is currently communicating with the computer. If the master drive is idle, it tells the slave drive to go ahead. If the master drive is communicating with the computer, it tells the slave drive to wait and then informs it when it can go ahead. The computer determines if there is a second (slave) drive attached through the use of Pin 39 on the connector. Pin 39 carries a special signal, called Drive Active/Slave Present (DASP), that checks to see if a slave drive is present. Although it will work in either position, it is recommended that the master drive is attached to the connector at the very end of the IDE ribbon cable. Then, a jumper on the back of the drive next to the IDE connector must be set in the correct position to identify the drive as the master drive. The slave drive must have either the master jumper removed or a special slave jumper set, depending on the drive. Also, the slave drive is attached to the connector near the middle of the IDE ribbon cable. Each drive's controller board looks at the jumper setting to determine whether it is a slave or a master. This tells them how to perform. Every drive is capable of being either slave or master when you receive it from the manufacturer. If only one drive is installed, it should always be the master drive. Many drives feature an option called Cable Select (CS). With the correct type of IDE ribbon cable, these drives can be auto configured as master or slave. CS works like this: A jumper on each drive is set to the CS option. The cable itself is just like a normal IDE cable except for one difference -- Pin 28 only connects to the master drive connector. When your computer is powered up, the IDE interface sends a signal along the wire for Pin 28. Only the drive attached to the master connector receives the signal. That drive then configures itself as the master drive. Since the other drive received no signal, it defaults to slave mode.


If a CD drive and a hard drive are sharing the same data cable in a computer system what type of connection is the CD drive using?

It is using the EIDE connection. The book says that if you have a hard drive and a CD that the hard drive should be the master and the CD will be the slave.


Can a slave drive with a virus transfer it to the master?

Simply yes. Transfering the file containing the virus or simply plugging it in can cause it to transfer. It also depends on the of type virus as well.


What is a type of slavery where the slave is the sole property of the master with no rights?

Chattel slavery is a type of slavery where the slave is considered the personal property of the master and has no rights or autonomy. In this system, slaves are treated as commodities that can be bought, sold, or traded at the owner's discretion.


If a CD drive and a hard drive are sharing the same data cable in a computer system what type of connection is the CD driving using Which of the two drives should be set to master Which to slave?

Both drives are using the same interface (IDE, SCSI, not SATA I or II because you can only connect one device to a SATA cable). If you have installed Operating system it's better to set the hard drive to Master, and the CD drive to slave. In that way your system will not ask the CD drive to boot up everytime when you start your computer. CD drive should be set to Master only when you are reinstalling/installing OS or you have repair it.


If a CD drive and a hard drive are sharing the same data cable in a computer system the CD drive is using what type of connection?

Connect the CD drive as a slave(change jumper pin).


What did slaves do in the bath?

In the Roman baths, there were two categories of slaves. One type of slave was the bath house slave who took the entrance money, provided towels and any other need of the client. These slaves of the bath houses also saw to it that the water in the various rooms was of the proper temperature and acted as general attendants. The second type of slave was the personal slave who accompanied the master to the baths. His job was to keep an eye on the master's possessions, especially his clothes, as thefts were common in the public baths.

How can one install a combo drive?

This computer technology works on 'master and slave' technology. in this two similar type of devices can be attached to the same data port on the motherboard. In order to install a combo drive there are two possible conditions:-1. you already have a CD-ROM,CD-rw etc.2. this is your first drive. if you already have drive then plug the data cable of combo drive into the previous drive and then plug the power cable of combo drive drive into power supply of system . then turn on the system combo drive will appear as the slave of previous drive . The combo drive is ready to use. (In case of an OS other than win- xp, you are supposed to install a driver). If this is your first drive then plug the data cable of combo drive on the motherboard and plug the power supply and turn on the system drive will appear (in case of OS other than win- xp, you are supposed to insall a driver).
