    Attached is a picture of a Western Digital drive
    The top of the picture shows the jumper settings
    The bottom of the picture shows the harddrive with a white Jumper to see it easyer.
    As you can see this jumper is on Slave not what you want. You would either want no jumper (Single or master) or on the last two pins (Cable select)

    The little white thing is a jumper just pull it off and either move it or leave it off. They are usally black but white showed up better in the picture.

    I will check tomorrow when I get back home. Thanks a lot for the advice. Hopefully that will solve the issue, so I can perhaps get them sold as well.

    If your using a drive dock or one of those usb cables the jumper doesnt matter.
