So what terminology do you use when you write instructions
for setting up multiple hard drives? My CMOS settings, and
any others I have seen, need to be told what the specs are
for the master (bootable) hard drive and the slave hard drive.
Or, do you just reject the entire concept and live with only
one hard drive no matter how full it gets.
YOUR THOUGHTS,
