Does the new hard drive come with that or can you use existing jumper on old hard drive?

i got a 50gb hard drive and a 400gb hard drive in my computer but all program files saves on the 50gb.. is there anyway to change it so that it saves on the 400gb? and how?

[Ankit3695]

thats cause ure windows is installed on ure 50gb hdd

[jakendrbe]

when your downloading files etc. them save them to: (for ex.) D:(drive) instead of C:(drive)

[benica87]

@cbgbigy change ur settings via video..and if using IDE(upgrade pc =P) or make the 400 the master via cables. video on that is by these guys also

[laidysman2000]

@cbgbigy if ur operating system is on the 50gb hard drive u gotta put a slave drive pin configuration on the 400gb and then it would use them in conjunction and then it would be a total of 450gb of memory on ur pc, im not sur if they show up seperate or the same in my computer (if ur using windows xp).

My Ethernet plug isn`t working how do I fix it?

[chendo2299]

If your hard drive is not from the original computer, you may have to download the drivers, go to the manufacture's website and look up your computer and download the drivers for the hardware you need.

[Ankit3695]

get a new one....they are not too expensive

[uveoh]

so is this how u change the gb/s? like if i wanted to change my hd from 3.0 gb/s to 1.5gb/s?

[supermanizgay]

[TonkatrainHONKHONK]

Thanks for this video. I bought a 2.5" IDE hard drive to USB 2.0 enclosure. Interestingly, when I removed my Dell laptop's hard drive there was an adapter on it. I pulled it off and put the enclosure's female pin thingie and I never saw a jumper anywhere. The instructions even say make sure the drive is in "master" mode but I don't understand where the jumper would go (if I had one) since there's a female pin thingie that has to go over the pins.

[Jaybet79]

can you make a video how to set the jumpers for maxtor hard drive i would be greatfull

[caramelate]

my ex bf cheated on me so im gonna get him back!

[NicCrespo]

And slaving his hard drive is the perfect thing to do! have fun lol.
