older hard drive newer computer
Ok I have an old dell (dimension XPS T500) and a newish dell(Dimension 4800) their is nothing wrong with the old hard drive (Maxtor 9136644) but the new hard drive (Seagate Barricuda 7200.7) is blown and the memory WAS messed up but we bought new and better memory its currently in the new computer. What I want to do is take the new hard drive out and put the old one in as a master hard drive. I have connected the old hard drive in the new computer and set the jumpers to master which doesnt work. Also as a side note they are both running the same operating system how can I do this properly?
