David,

I installed the new Seagate 200MB ATA100 drive. The 1000 did not see it. I connected the new drive as a slave and the Snap recognized it and formatted it for 32GB. It worked properly as a 2nd drive.

How should I prepare the drive so the Snap will see it as the boot/master drive. Should it be formatted? FAT32? What size partition? Is a 2GB FAT16 partition better? Should it be formatted as the primary drive? A logical, active drive?

Again, thanks for your time.

Nelson
