How Do You Combine Removable Drives In To One Big Drive?
(7) Now this is very interesting and confusing at the same time. I have been told that it is something
that is good useful and can be done. To combine all the removable drives you might have and put them
all in to your main Hard Drive so then you have a bigger memory. The reason I am asking how to do
this is because I always seem to have problems wioth my PC as it seems to run brilliant for a couple
of weeks and then it goes slow like a snail but I've never been able to find out why? Would

Cd/dvd Drives Not Reconized

Sata And Ide
(4) Hi guys, I have a IDE Hard drive i think. It says ATA/100 or something like that. I want to add
another hard drive to my computer so i have two. I have a one of those flat cables that connects
the hard drive to the Motherboard and it has one more port coming off to plug in one more hard drive
to that cable. What is the difference between SATA and IDE and is IDE the same as ATA/100? Can i
get an SATA cable and plug it into my ATA/100 or should i just get another ATA/100 hard drive?
Thanks....

Sata Hard Drive Not Recognized By Windows
WD 250gb SATA hard drive not working (12) Hi there! I recently re-installed windows on my 250 gb WD SATA hard drive. I had a 50 gb

wouldn't boot and eventually chkdsk said that the mbr was unrecoverable. A friend recommended
that i use a seperate parallel hard drive to load windows and then convert the disk to dynamic in
disk management. I did this, but the computer crashed and now windows won't even load with the
SATA hard drive connected. The BIOS sees the SATA hdd, but that's as far as I can get. I tri....
