Installing a second Hard Drive

1. Turn off the computer but leave the power cord plugged in.

2. Remove the computer cover.

3. Touch a metal part of the computer to ground yourself, or use a grounding strap.

4. Locate the ribbon cable connected to the existing hard drive.

5. Change the master/slave designation of the second hard drive See Drive layout page

6. Connect the second hard drive to the second connector on the cable (colored strip should be closest to the power cable). If the cable does not have a second connector, replace it with one that does, or use a second ribbon cable to attach the second hard drive to the motherboard (if a second drive port is available).

See Drive layout page

7. Connect an available power cable to the hard drive.

See Drive layout page

8. Insert the hard drive into an available drive bay and secure with screws.

9. Replace the computer cover.

Add Hard Drive to CMOS Setup

Steps:

1. Start the computer.

2. Enter the CMOS setup program (the system generally indicates which key to press), immediately after memory check.

3. Use arrow keys to select Autodetect option (or comparable option for your computer) if it is available, and press Enter. If this option is not available, see step 5 to manually enter the drive parameters.

4. In the Autodetect screen, enter Y to select the default settings for each drive that is installed and bypass settings for uninstalled drives. The screen will return to the main setup screen.

5. Press Enter or OK (or Esc if the other keys are not available) to accept the new setting.

6. Use arrow keys to select Save and Exit setup and press Enter. The computer restarts, indicating the presence of the second drive. Your drive is ready.

Overall Warnings:

Don't mess around inside the computer, especially near the power supply (there should be warning labels), if you don't know what you're poking, to avoid the risk of electric shock.

Handle the hard drive carefully to avoid damaging the circuit board.

Handle the drive cables carefully to keep from bending the cable or pins.

If you have a new board and drive

The Master/Slave configuration is no longer necessary with modern hard drives and motherboards.

So, if both your drives are ATA-100 or higher and are using an 80-conductor Ultra DMA cable (identifiable by the end plug being black and the middle plug being gray) do the following instead:

1) Set both drives' jumpers to Cable Select (CS).

2) Plug the furthest connector on the cable (black) into what was the Master drive, and plug the other header (gray) into your new drive.

A lot of the newer drives seem to prefer this over the old Master/Slave configuration, and my own tests have revealed a slight decrease in access times for both my drives.
