Sata Disk 0 and Disk 1
For a long while I ran just one HD (Sata) on my machine. It was connected to Sata 1 on the MB and appeared as Disk 0 in Disk Managment. I just connected another Sata drive to Sata 2 on the MB. It shows up as Disk 0 and the original as Disk 1. I had thought the reverse should be true -- Original still as Disk 0 and the new as Disk 1.
BIOS shows the original connected to IDE 3 Master and the added one connected to IDE 3 Slave.
The system works fine with all the partitions and their drive letters I had assigned to them correct.
No big deal. I just wonder why the Disk Management disk numbers appear as they do.
Would someone please help me understand?
Thank you.
