Probably nothing. If you are running auto and it detects the drive and at
full size in LBA mode on the correct channel, it's going to work assuming
you are using the correct drivers.

Nor am I. As I mentioned in other posts, I all SCSI here, except for the
laptops and one test box in the corner which has not been turned on in
probably 6 months or so. What I know about IDE is what I consider "common
knowledge" based on posts by others. I will say that I apply some common
sense to the "common knowledge" to make sure it's consistent.

I remember you mentioned this a while ago and assumed you got it fixed
when the thread died. Did you break it again or was it never fixed?
(Hint: new thread if you want to persue this).

Not really. It is somewhat odd that drive 2 and 3 are the bootable drives
rather than drive 1 and 2, which is more typical, but that could just be
driver load order.
