    Default Install another hard disk

    Good trades Esparto make clear my theme:

    I have one motherboard as rock p4i65g with IDE hard disk installed, and I like to install another. Since the board supports SATA, I want to know if this would install on a roll much like to do, whether to touch the bios, that kind of power cord goes into it (the data I know it is different), will notice difference to install one type or another? Or install an IDE as a slave of another and that's it. Well the theme is carnality .gracias in advance.

    There are also SATA hard drives SATA Connector Molex connector are old, as you can see in this picture:
    If your source has the SATA power cable or bring an adapter, you do not have to look at it, otherwise we should buy a SATA disk with additional connector (not sure if we all come).

    As for the boot order, that is specified in the BIOS, actually, forget whether master or slave, for that SATA disks no longer exists, and even keep your IDE, you do not have to do, just depends on the order of boot you get.

    Installation is easy, it connects, the computer is booted, it is found that the BIOS to recognize it, and throw ... I use

    Thanks Islander but I think the more you know, I come more questions: If this does not have sata and my connection has no power supply cable for SATA, there is no way to install a secondary sata?
    I have a new IDE disk to install, but it is better to install a sata?
    If you install the IDE, we must enter the bios? There are tutorials for this? Thanks

    If your source has no connection to SATA disks do not have to worry, you'll be buying this adapter solves the problem.
