have a system with two physical hard drives (C and D), both are listed in the bios, and they are piggybacked via the cable..what i would like to do is allow only one drive (C) to work even though both work properly. In addition to removing the physical drive, what do i do in the bios to allow this configuration? In effect, i do not want D to appear and thereby function at this time
ALSO
in terms of cables, are there specific alignments that the cables need to have when placing them into the physical drive? if a pin has the markings MR(master), SL(slave), which arrangement allows the particular choice to work, is it with the little dohicky on the pins or off? and finally, is there a particular arrangement that the white power strips have to be placed as they are placed in the device ( whether its a CD, 3.5 floppy, 5.25 floppy, hard drive, etc ) ? Please advise........Thanks with a SMILE!
