You have to set the jumpers on the drive correctly and that relates to which
ide channel you put the drive on . I think seagate reccomend putting a
second hard drive on the secondary ide channel with the drive set as master
on that channel . With this computer, which has an old hard drive from daw
installed for some sims to be on , I had to tell the bios to look for the
second dive when I installed ,I think the auto refers more to not needing to
be told the drive parameters rather than just finding the new drive at first
boot . Seagate have a lot of info that I used when I installed the second
drive here .
Good luck
Paul

Subject: [L-OT] Hard Drive Installation-Help!!
> Hello everyone!! First let me apologize for this possibly to OT for the
OT list post. I'm trying to install a second hard drive in my internet
computer (actually it's a removable tray so I can use this computer to back
up our DAW tracks. I installed the removable tray and pulled the drive from
our studio p.c. and put it in the tray. When I booted up the system it
didn't notice anything...O.K. I thought I must have to tweak something in
CMOS. Nothing I do seems to make it notice my drive. Why? The motherboard is
a MSI 6163. The CMOS set-up is not very helpful either. I wish it was as
straight forward as the ASUS board I have. I had a problem installing other
things on this MSI board (I couldn't figure it out). I took it to a place
and he got it working. I have no idea what he did to get it working. Any
ideas? Everything in CMOS is set to auto. Auto works for the cdrom and 1st
hard drive. Why not this one? Thanks!!
