WhiteBear Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 I have multiple SSD/HDD they are all connected by one power cable into the PSU. Except one of the drives, I'm assuming the HDD is not being seen by windows, my guess it's the jumper being set to master ? To show what I mean here is a diagram As seen, to the left is the power cable, it's daisy chained from the top to the next drive, and the next and the next etc then into the PSU. First Drive is an HDD with SATA connection Second Drive is a SSD Third is a HDD with SATA connection Forth is a HDD with strictly a Ribbon Cable to the motherboard Fifth is an SSD My guess is the HDD with the ribbon cable is the cause; it's set to master for the jumper; should I change it to cable select or slave ?

SpikeSoprano Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 I hope you also have a power connector going to the ide drive. You can try the to put the jumper on slave or take it off alltogether. Did you go into bios to see what drives are being detected, if it's not seen in the bios windows won't detect it. Could be a dead drive ??

WhiteBear Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 I hope it's not dead, then again it was working fine from what I can remember a few weeks ago before completely re-arranging all my drive connections. I'll take the jumper off completely; hoping that works. The power connector is daisy chained as seen in the diagram; obviously power is going to it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
