its the same process as u set up a SATA drive... the first thing to do is to remove the jumper from the drive and then use the IDE cable to connect it with it. then go to the drive options and set it to serve as the main.
the hard drive should be set to master...
If the Hard drive is IDE (40 pins on the back) you would configure the primary hard drive as Master and secondary hard drive as Slave using the jumpers on the back of the hard drive.
Hard drive as master and DVD writer as slave.
Configure the hard drive as the master and the CD-ROM as the slave.
master if the ide cable has a single drive connection. if the ide cable has the master and slave connection. then set the drive to master with slave.
master if the ide cable has a single drive connection. if the ide cable has the master and slave connection. then set the drive to master with slave.
Arrangement of Jumper pins on Hard Drive
Each IDE slot can handle two drives. One drive will be the master and the other will be the slave depending o the configuration. If the jumpers of one drive is configured to set the drive as MA (Master), the second must be configured to SL (Slave). Both drives may be configured as CS (Cable Select), if so, The positioning on the ribbon cable will determine whic one is the master and which is the slave
The Harddrive needs to be set as "master" and the CD ROM as Slave.
Yes.
To the IDE cable, 2 Hard disks can be connected as Master and Slave.(Hard disks that support IDE). 4 SATA ports could be used for 4 Hard Disks.
IF the CD drive shares an IDE channel with a hard drive, make the hard drive the master and the CD drive the slave.
