first, are you using 80 or 40 counductor cable, if its 80 then both drives should be set to cs or cable select.
second, has the drive been formated yet ? if not go to control panel, adminstrator tools, computer management, then on the left side click on disk management, then if you see the drive listed there, you can format it from there. |
