EIDE/UATA provides for zero, one or two drives on a single bus cable. If one drive is provided, it must be the last drive on the cable in order to prevent the possibility of a reflective "stub" termination, and it must be designated (using an appropriate jumper) as "Master".
If two drives are provided, then these may be in any order, but only one may be designated as "Master", while the other must be designated as "Slave". In reality, there is no dependent relationship between the drives; they are actually "peers". -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
