When i go into my bios, it doesnt seem to find my new HDD when its on Auto. I plug in my old, Maxtor ATA drive and put the master on auto and it finds it fine. How do i set my new HDD to master and my old one to slave. I have a few settings to chose from, CD-ROM, MO, Other ATAGP(?) device but my new HDD isnt listed. I put the slave and master on Auto setting and the master detects the Maxtor. When i dont plug in the Maxtor, and plug in my new HDD and put them both on auto, it still doesnt find it.
 
microbell's advice will work if you connect both disks to one IDE (connect them to the same cable).
