What type of drive uses master and slave connections?

The type of drive that uses master and slave connections is the IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) drive, also known as PATA (Parallel ATA). In this configuration, two drives can be connected to a single IDE channel, with one designated as the "master" and the other as the "slave." This setup allows for efficient data transfer between the drives and the motherboard. However, this technology has largely been replaced by SATA (Serial ATA) drives, which do not use the master/slave configuration.


When installing a hard drive and a CD-ROM drive in the saperate IDE channel?

For performance reasons, a Hard Drive and CD-ROM drive should be on separate IDE channels. This is because both drives on one channel will share bandwidth, making them run at only half the speed if both drives are active at once (i.e. installing a program from CD-ROM). Both drives should be configured as "Master" drives (according to the jumper cables), since they will both be the master for their respective channel.

How do you install two hard drives in a computer?

Installing multiple hard drives is essentially the same as installing just one. Just slide the drive into the bay and screw it in, and then connect the power and data cables. If you are using older PATA drives, you will also need to make sure, if using the same cable for two drives, that one is jumpered for Master and one is jumpered for Slave. This is not an issue with SATA drives; just plug them in. Once they are plugged in, you can install an operating system on them. If you are adding a second drive to an already working system, you may need to enter your BIOS and change the boot order so that the original hard drive is still booted from first.
