i have 2 quantum hdds, one is 20gb (my original one; it has windows on it), and a newer 30gb one that i wanted to hook in too.
i plugged it into the open ide plug on the same cable i have my original hdd on, and booted up. i watched to see if it came up in the primary / secondary list, and it did. however, when i go into My Computer, it isnt there. i have my original hdd, my floppy, and my 3 disc drives, but no 2nd hdd.
i dont know what to do.... i set the jumpers on the hdd to secondary, but theres one that i think means that it will be whatever position it is on the ide cable. could that be it?
any help would be appreciated
