I have a problem with my CDRW and DVDRW since fitting a new hard drive The
problem is copying files from CDs to either of the 2 HDDs. It starts OK
then the transfer rate slows right down (from either optical drive)and I get
a read error and then the process stops. Sometimes the CD slows down
spinning, may start again but then that is when the prob starts. Happens
with several CDs which I know are OK. The config I have is :
Primary Master ST 80021A (boot disc)
Primary slave AO6 DVDRW
Secondary Master ST38011A (new HDD)
Secondary slave CDRW
The prob has only appeared since fitting the new HDD but I got the
recommended config from an exprt usergroup website. Have written to the
CDRW and DVDRW OK - a CDRW (4x) takes about 20 mins which is what it did
before. Does it matter what drives are on the end or beginning of the
ribbon cables or not ?
