What are the two drives that are jumpered slave and cable select? Are they on the same cable?

If you're going to be using IDE, don't use cable select when you've got the other drive set up differently. Either use them both as cable select, or set them each according to their assignments on the cable. (end of the cable is usually master, middle connector is usually slave) I have never used cable select, too many problems over the years.
