New drive
Hi,
I have just ordered a new drive, due tomorrow.
I will add it to the slave connector and keep my current hdd (which has
3 partitions) as the boot drive. This one is just for extra storage.
I assume it will come with a diagram to link it as a slave.
Do I have to fdisk it?
Do I then have to format it using the command
format g: ?
or will it all be done?
Just plug it in and go!
Thanks
.
