I have an old maxtor HDD out of a Compaq that ran '98. The motherboard on that computer went bad, so I was going to try and add it to an IBM running Suse Linux 10.0. I know that I need to change the jumpers on the drive, but I'm not sure exactly how to do it. I see the jumper between the SCSI and the power plugs on the drive, but it is not labeled. The pins look like this:
::.: (with the jumper on the second two)
Can someone tell me where it should go to make it slave, or all drives different?
After (if I can) make it a slave drive, can I plug it into the IBM and have it show up, or does it have to go into a another Windows machine?
Any advice would be appreciated. My knowledge of this is clearly very limited.
Thanks . . .
EDIT:
the part number is 93071u6 - I looked it up on maxtor.com and it gave me "file not found"
The drive is labeled as a cable select, but can I still set the jumpers to slave?
