OK: a few stupid questions.

1. Are both these hard drives parallel ATA (old-fashioned IDE), or are
   either of them SATA or SCSI?

2. What sort of chipset do you have (Intel, Nvidia, Via?) Are either of
   these drives on some sort of RAID adapter or add-in adapter?

3. If these are parallel IDE, you really do have both of them connected
   to the same IDE cable, don't you? And one of them is jumpered to
   master, and the other to slave?

Thanks,

James.
