Hi I'm not in on this thread from the start but thought to mention that I just put a Seagate IDE HD into an iMac and not being sure about the jumpers I went to Seagate's site and under their Mac faq they recommended setting to Master. It came as cable select by default - which seems to be a new way that works if BOTH items on an IDE chain use cable select. Now it may have worked either way but I went with their advice. If cable select works ok for you - whatever! Just for in case anyone wanted to know Regards Brian -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
