    Post Old HD missing Jumper setting INFO

    so body gave me a Maxtor HD model 7345AT 11-24-93(D) about 350MB. It was originally set @ Master, but there are no clear info on the HD to set it as SLAVE. (this is an old drive so jumper are all over places).
    Is there anywhere I can find the info about jumper setting for this old HD?

    If they are small jumpers on the bottom of the drive, try J20 closed = master and J20 open = slave

    Best resource for old hard drive info I have found:
    http://www.blue-planet.com

    According to them, open j20, which is on the bottom of the drive, just behind the 40-pin connector, farthest from the power connector.

    hope this helps!

    Download maxblast from maxtor website to your HDD. expand it onto a floppy and reboot your machine.
    select advance, in there you will find a comprehensive list of jumper settings for all common HDD.

    Try this link, ontrack has a nice applet to help identify jumper settings on different hard drives. Hope it helps.
