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.

What is the difference between master IDE and slave IDE?
In computing, the terms "master IDE" and "slave IDE" refer to the primary and secondary IDE devices connected to the IDE bus on a motherboard.

Each IDE channel can have one master and one slave device connected to it.

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.
