BRL,

Oops, was using computer speak again, (looks behind the door to make sure Rob, a.k.a. PPRuNe Towers, is not there to slap me), I have to watch that a little more.

Setup the Seagate as Primary Master and use the end of the ribbon to connect the drive. Make your CD Drive Secondary Master and the Quantum Secondary Slave. (Performance of the Quantum does not matter in your application, so limiting it to ATA-33 in this case should be fine.)

If you can follow the steps above you can get the Quantum partitioned and formatted. Then it should work.

Here are the Jumper Settings for most Quantum Drives:

Quantum® ATA hard drives have their jumper block located at the back of the drive on the interface connector (see the first diagram below), or for some earlier models it may located directly on the drive's printed circuit board (see the second diagram below). In either case, the most common setting for a master drive is to install the jumper on the DS position, and the most common setting for a slave drive is to simply remove the jumper or store it on the park (PK) position if available



The diagram above applies to the following Quantum® hard drives:

Fireball models: lct20, lct15, lct10, lct8, CX, CR, EX, EL, SE, and ST.
Fireball Plus models: AS, LM, KX, and KA.

Note: Some of the newer Fireball lct and Fireball Plus models ship from the factory with a default jumper setting of CS.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The diagram below applies to all Fireball TM capacities and to the Fireball 540/640/1080/1280 models.

Take Care,

Richard
