hi all,

I'm just wondering, I have 3 samsung spinpoint HDDs, when i bootup it seems to be seeking from all 3 drives making it slower. If i were to disable the other 2 hdds before shut down so that the next time i boot up its only got 1 hdd to seek from, would this make it faster. then when its booted enable the other 2 hdds?

thanks
 
in BIOS you should be able to point it to the primary drive you want to boot from, look for Hard Disk Priority or boot order, or something similar to those.
 
thanks - i think ive already done it, oh...before i put the 3rd in!!!
will do 2nite
