Configuring SATA and IDE drives together

1474 Views 3 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  Triple6
I got a new SATA drive that I want to be the drive where the OS is located and have my two IDE drives function as storage drives. However, I don't know how to set them up cablewise for them all to be recognized at once. It either happens that the SATA drive is there or the IDE drives are there.

I managed to install Windows XP on my SATA drive, but I can't get all the drives to work together. When I tried setting the IDE drives to master and slave and adding the SATA drive, the system locks up or goes extremely slow.
