| 519181 | 2007-01-25 08:29:00 | Hi I have just bought a 'Seagate Barracuda 250GB IDE 7200RPM Hard Drive'. I need a hand installing it. I want it to be the slave drive. I just want to know how to set the jumper to make it a slave drive. I have installed Harddrives before but They have pictures on the Drive to show where to put the jumper depending on weather you want a Master or Slave. but the I don't understand the diagram on this drive. does any one know which one I need to put it on. Thanks | stevensaaron (6348) | ||

| 519183 | 2007-01-26 03:26:00 | OK, But the Hard drive isn't coming up in My Computer with the other drive, What do I need to do? | stevensaaron (6348) | ||
| 519184 | 2007-01-26 03:33:00 | OK, But the Hard drive isn't coming up in My Computer with the other drive, What do I need to do? Do you need to format it? Does it appear in your disk manager in the computer management console? |
