Right off the assembly line
i am trying to upgrade my PC and bought a Seagate Barracuda 320 Gb SATA drive. now the problem is that my old drive is a Seagate IDE drive (80 Gb). i would like to keep it as a secondary drive and the barracuda as the primary one. i have a Asus 5ld2-vm mobo.
i am really confused how to go about it and the mobo bios settings.
can anyone lease help a total novice in this?
thanks in advance.
