My mainboard has 2 Ide connectors.
Currently I have one HD , a CD drive & a CD-RW drive.
The two CD drives share a connector - master & slave.
How should I connect a second HD for best performance?
I think the two hard drives should be on different connectors and then place
a CD drive with each ? It seems 'logical' that the hard drives would perform
better if each were on it's own channel, but this may not necessarily be so
?
And, second question, will the drive letters arrange themselves
automatically, with the current HD having Windows (98SE) remaining as C: ?
