Dear friends, Thank you for all your help. I finally succeed in setting the jumper. My hdd #1 has type A1 jumper, and hdd #2 has type B. I set hdd #1 as master by removing 1 jumper, thus only one jumper left on J50 (different from the quide in the website, whereas they suggest to put the second jumper on the horisontal position on the pin). BIOS recognised both hdd, but then it said that hdd # 2 was failed. I don't know whether it is because of the numerous ON-OFF switching of the computer when I tried those various jumper combinations or the drive was already broken at the first place. Nevertheless, this experience makes my confidence on seagate increased. I still have a 6.4GB seagate that originates from my FIRST PC (about 10 years ago) that still in good condition, no bad sector at all. I especially like seagate barracuda series, it has metal shielding covering all of its body, very solid. Quantum? Try not to use it. I have seen a dozen of them dead of burned chip.
