Promise TX2000

[Bob]

I currently run 2 mirrored drives on a Promise TX2000. I want to add a new
Hard Drive on one of the motherboard IDE connections. How can I add a drive
to the IDE and not have it recognized as C Drive. I want the current drive
on the Promise card to remain C: Drive.

Thanks Bob

I don't think you'll have a problem. But just in case, when using Disk
Management you create one partition (extended) for the new drive and then
create one or more logical partitions assigning drive letters as you go, you
should be ok.

Not possible--you're asking to have two C drives.

You will need to have a BIOS that allows to boot from the TX2000 first.
