When i want to connect two SATA hard drives do I need some power cable on slave or just to connect it with sata cable and that'it? Because I did it like that and it's not recognized. And I don't have second SATA power supply cable in my computer.
first, your HDD needs power in order for it to work, that's a fact,after you have connected all necessary cables(cables and powersupply of HDD), next go to bios setup(press delete button at start up) and configure your HDD in STANDARD CMOS FEATURES, put your primary HDD in IDE CHANNEL 0 MASTER and your 2nd HDD in IDE CHANNEL 1 MASTER, save and exit set up, then your good to go :D
Of course you will need power, how is it to run without it?
Don't have to worry about master/slave with SATA, however, if you also have EIDE hard drives in your system, you may have to set your BIOS to enhanced or some other cooperative mode to use them all at the same time.
