On the back of your hard drive there are pins ( you don't plug a cable into these pins) but there is a little sleeve type thing that you can take off and place on different pins. It should cover two pins at a time. There should also be a diagram in your hard drive manual or right above the pins that tells you how to set that sleeve so that your hard drive is set to master.

I beleive there are a couple different settings... Cable Select, Master, Slave.

It seems like yours is set to slave, the reasoning they have these it for people with multiple hard drives.


Here is a step my step process for this Here

And you can read more about why this is done here

My organization is developing a set of "standards" for websites built inhouse. The first question that comes to mind is what would be a good standard default size for <p> text? 12 point? Which begs the question, what unit of measurement should we use for specifying font sizes, points or ems? Thanks. -Fleemo

Hallöchen! I have to generate excerpts in different human languages in a program. In general, the language is not the locale's language, but set at runtime. Nevertheless, GNU's gettext should be used for the excerpts. This means that I have to wrap calls to gettext() in a function that sets the locale temporarily. The problem is how to do that. Let's assume I need to generate German snippets. Then I could say

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
