I have a dual boot 98se and xp on one hd. 40gig 7200 seagate.
It is set to master ide1 and as i am starting to get a few problems that are annoying but liveable I am installing xp pro onto the spare hd 30 gig maxtor on raid 1.
My question is
In order to boot from the maxtor I am having to swop the jumper over and then swop the IDE cables, Is the cable select for this instance? also I have no paperwork for the maxtor and the Maxtor site just gives too much info what I need to know is the jumper options will they be the same as the seagate as they are not marked on the case.
I know that far left looking from behind is master, no jumper is slave but the rest I dont know.
thanks
