Some tips:
(1) As for the other IDE drives, some had to be set to slave, not master.

(2) The computer recognizes the drive right away, but can't always read any data from it--that's how you know the drive "works", but the jumper settings might interfere with the computer's ability to read the data from it--so try different jumper settings.

(3) If you use Windows, have the Disk Management window open. If you see Disk 1 (or perhaps some other number), but nothing else, then try changing the jumper settings.
