I've just been given about 10 hard drives of different makes and sizes, I want to use one of them as a slave drive to give my current system more space. Im running a gateway celeron 2,0 ghz 256 RAM and I dont know what kind of hard drive I have except that its your stock 30 gig hard drive. the drives given to me are, and please excuse me if I give the incorrect name of the manufacturer or make, some are hard to read, (Maxtor) DiamondMax Plus 60 7200 RPM 30 gig at Disk drive, (western digital) 8.4 gig 5400 RPM, IBM deskstar 20.5 gb RPM 5400, Samsung 40.gb, Barracuda 7200.7 80 gb, hell this one even has set directions printed on it and shows compatible with windows XP SP 2, that Im running. There are more, but this last one is the one I want and I've never done it before, Im looking for advice and tips before even thinking about touching my only computer and tinkering with it. Along with these hard drives, I've been given about 30 sets of jumper cables assorted sizes and shapes.
