seagate hard drive doesn't show up

[randmdavis]

I have installed a second hard drive in my vectra vl800. The second drive is a segate drive without any jumpers on it. It does not show up in my computer, can anyone help.

What operating system??

Put the jumpers on & set it as slave.

A few things:

You will probably need to at least have a jumper on the 'cable select' pins, not too sure about seagate drives though.

Is it on the same cable as the other drive?

Is it a 40 or 80 wire cable your using?

Yeah what Hipster said. I'm not 100% sure about Seagate but I believe no jumper on the newer Maxtor makes the drive master. Also is the drive showing in the bios?
