- I am trying to install a second drive (Western Digital Caviar 2200).
- I first tried installing the drive standalone. I went into setup (Quadtel
- BIOS) and set the number of heads to 12 and the number of cylinders to 989.
- When I went into the format option of setup, the number of cylinders was
- listed as one (cylinders were 989). I then aborted the formatting. Is there
- a way around this problem?
