Subject: Slave HD Not found From: Jim Cooley [log in to unmask] Thank you for all of the responses. I am sorry I did not state that I set the jumpers on both drives and I placed them with the master at the end of the cable and the slave in the middle. I will try setting both drives to "cable select". I did everything according to Seagate's instructions. I cannot think of anything else. Help would be appreciated.
