Master/Slave jumper settings for Maxtor hard drive
Keith Horton
(Micron 486-66). As it turns out, I have extremely limited
documentaion on the various components in the system.
I have set the new drive as slave, but find that I have no
clue as to how to set my original drive (Maxtor Model 7345AT,
340 MB) as the master. There is only one jumper which can
go on one of 6 pin combinations. I assume that it is this
jumper which needs to be changed. Does anybody know which
jumper setting for this disk is what I need? Appreciate
any help.
Not sure if this is important, but a possibly complicating
factor is that my system has a VL-bus 4 MB cache controller
card and there are several jumpers on it, and yes, I have
zero documentation on it, also.
I have had no problems with my Micron and it has been a
workhorse, but at times like this, I get a bit upset with
the manufacturer at the sparsety of documentation.
Thanks in advance and aloha.

From my Maxtor 7345A manual:
Master/Slave jumper is J20. Jumpered/connected means only drive or
master drive. Remove it to be the slave.
Also, you can call 1(800)2MAXTOR for tech support help. (Mon-Fri 6AM-6PM MST)
