Just bought a new Dell Inspiron 530. It comes with one hard drive that's 500GB. I want to install a WD2500KS SATA drive.
Problem is they installed the first hard drive in the wrong spot. The extra power cable/cords won't reach to the second drive slot... so... I need to move the first hard drive down one slot. Also, the first drives Sata cord is plugged into the motherboard where their manual says a second hard drive's cord should be.
So my question is, if I just physically move the first drive and keep everything plugged the way it is... then install the second & use the open Sata connection on the mobo... will that screw up anything in Vista or does it not really matter.
I'm confused so I can try to clarify if necessary!
Thx.
