Hi,
The IDE drive jumpers will depend on drive manufacture. Most set the Master/Single with no jumper. Then for multiple drives you would select a Master/Slave with a jumper setting. You should google for the drive manufacture & model to get the jumper table settings. If you use the 'cs' then the position on the cable will decide device assignment. Some manufactures provide a jumper table physically on the drive. You might find a mask labeling on the PCB of the drive. OP, you seemed to have a contention problem. The device jumpers were not set properly, if you want a Master/Slave then set the jumpers properly. Place the Master at the end of the cable. If the drive is a current IDE then be sure to use a '80 conductor' cable, place the index (red/blue stripe) pointing to the power supply connector, most new drives have a key on the connector to prevent the connector from being placed incorrectly. |
A lot of drives will default to slave if the master jumper is not set. Many drives do not include a jumper to set for slave - they assume if master is off, slave is on, with CS being the exception to the rule.
