Should I or Could I change my IDE connections?

[totalguy]

i would put your main drive as primary master or ide1
master (same thing) and put one of the dvd drives as
primary slave then put the other hard drive as master on
the secondary ide cable and the dvd drive as slave thats
the best way, i cant think why you have your hard drives
on the secondary ide port
