Are the jumper settings not on the drive? Tony.

What is the correct jumper setting to make the Maxtor the Slave drive? There are 4 pins across the top, and 5 pins across the bottom. (Sorry, but in Outlook Express I can't seem to figure out how to post this in mono-space so the diagram below looks correct.) top row: pin1, pin2, pin3, no pin, pin5 bottom row: pin1, pin2, pin3, pin4, pin5 This was an OEM drive I bought from a shop that was going out of business, and I didn't notice that at the time I bought the drive. It came set with a jumper on (top pin 1 to bottom pin 1), and a second jumper on (top pin 2 to top pin 3). For the dual Slave mode, I'm currently using a jumper on (top pin 2 to top pin 3), and a jumper on (bottom pin 4 to bottom pin 5). Is this correct?
