    Mobos have generally, 80 pin IDE ports, SATA 1, 2 or 3 ports.
    If you use the IDE port, you will set your OS drive as the master and the new drive as the slave, by placing jumpers on each drive in approiate spot. And you will use a 80 pin flat cable with two plugs.

    If you choose an SATA port, make sure the OS drive is in Port 0, cdrom in port 5, and the new drive in one of the others port 1>port 4.
