  • Is my hard drive failing or am I?

    My IDE Hard drive appears to be failing.  A little bit after I first built the system, any data being written/read off of my old IDE drive would take up almost all of my CPU power, and slow my entire system down.  I removed all the data (over about a day of transferring) and have not used the HD in a long time.  I figure it's a dead ...

  • SATA HDD Jumper Questions

    Hello, I'm new to these boards but I'm a long-time Newegg.com customer. So I've read a few places that removing the hard drive jumper completely opens up the HDD to SATA 3.0 GB/s from 1.5 GB/s. Right now the jumper is on the ''Master'' setting although I've only got one HDD. I've got a Seagate Barracuda 250 GB. Is that true or what? Thanks...
