[QUOTE="TVeblen, post: 14009263"] If you are using a modern ATA 80 wire ribbon cable you can use Cable Select on *both* devices, making sure to put the Main system Drive-0(C: Drive) on the end (Black/Master) connector and the Auxiliary Drive-1(D: Drive) on the middle (Gray/Slave) connector. Or, regardless of cable type, set the MASTER and SLAVE drive jumpers respectively. The Optical drives should be jumpered in the same fashion as the hard drives: Cable Select for all 4 devices, or Master/Slave configurations for all 4 devices. The SINGLE drive option is for just what it sounds like: a system with a single drive on the cable. Not for you. [/QUOTE]
