It should say in your manual, I think when I had it set upp on my lastyer motherboard (was IDE not SATA) they were both master. But if you read that manul it should tell ya.
I would get some raptors if I had the money, or just some big Maxtor SATA drives:drool: all that space.

The jumpers don't select master/slave on the raptors. They select power options. Just leave them in their default positions to run RAID 0. I got that from the WD site.
OSUMaxx is right. If you're using the SATA raid leave the drives on master. If you're using a PATA raid controller and 2 drives leave them both to master and put each drive on it own separate connector. I may be wrong but the only reason I can think of to select slave is if you are building a more than 2 drive array on a PATA raid setup. Come to think of it I would be supprised that any SATA drive has a master/slave option as the SATA controllers that I've seen are one connector one drive.
