Hey all, over the last year ive been having a serious amount of stability problems with my computer leading to me reformatting around every 2 months thanks to a blue screen of death or the like. When it actually works, xp seems to boot so damn slow its unreal.
im using two seagate hard disks, one 80GB master set with the jumpers to master, and one 200gb set to slave. Im using a standard cheap IDE cable that came with an old computer that seems to link the two drives and make them work.
So my question is really guys, is there anything to consider that i do not know about when running 2 hard disks? And is an IDE cable an IDE cable (at least that is what i assumed). I assume i can take two random hard disks and just plug them together like i have?
Thanks if you can shed any light here!
Regards,
