Thanks again, I have two hard drives so : looks like'
IDE-1  Hard Drive (Master)
IDE-1  Hard Drive (Slave)
IDE-2  CD-ROM  (Master)
IDE-2  CDR/RW  (Slave)  8x4x32
11 months old Abit BX6 R2

| For example, on my Sony 8/4/32, I was not able to write at full 8x speed
| until I moved the unit from the secondary IDE controller to the primary.
| On the newer controllers (those that support ATA-66) it probably won't
| make any difference, but if your machine is more than 2 years old it
| would be prudent to use the following configuration:
| 
| IDE-1 Hard Drive (Master)
| IDE-1 CD-RW (Slave)
| 
| IDE-2 CD-ROM (Master)
| IDE-2 ZIP, DVD or other device (Slave)
| 
| Hope this helps,

| PS: Use master/slave jumpers, not cable-select - its more straight
| forward will save you headaches down the road.
