If it's an IBM-H3xxx-Ax drive (quite likely, as I've got an IBM drive of 
similar capacity), then the following jumper settings apply :-

JP1 - Master on
JP2 - Slave on
JP3 - Cable select on
JP4 - Not connected
JP5 - Not connected
JP6 - Not connected - 1 pin only
JP7 - LED

AFAIK, you won't have a problem with the WD Caviar drive, as I have a 
420Mb Caviar and an IBM 246MB Hb co-existing quite happily.
