Can anyone tell if you can use an IDE HD as a second drive if you are using a SATA HD for the primary? If so how do you install it so IDE drive will boot up with system. I have an old seagate IDE drive from an old build but my new PC is using a WD SATA drive. would like to use old drive for more storage but want it to boot up with system.
 
On my system I just plugged it in and it worked. Sometimes you need to muck about in bios but usually you can just plug it in with the jumper set as slave.
