I am having trouble deciding what settings I should use to get the best performance out of my hard drive and my dvdrw.
I have these:
Maxtor 80 gb, 8 mb cache
WD 40 gb, 2 mb cache
Lite-on DVDRW
Sony 16x DVD
Here is what I was thinking:
1st ide
Master - Maxtor 80 gb
Slave - WD 40 gb
2nd ide
Master - dvdrw
slave - dvd
or
1st ide
master - maxtor 80 gb
slave - dvd
2nd ide
master - wd 40 gb
slave - dvd rw
Or would it be better if I just leave out the WD, I don't think I will be using up the 80 gigs anytime soon.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you
