dirtwarrior Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 not always jumpers are usually master-slave- cable selectthe jumpers goes up and downI fixed one where someone had the jumpers set side to side actually crossing 2 jumpers. Well the bios or cmos would see the HD or other IDE device but it would beeeeeeep registering an error till the jumpers were set correctly up and down in correct position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGRES Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I've got one Seagate Barracuda 40GB which seems to beep few times until initialized.... the drive works fine, only the sound is weird.At least it sounds like beep. It is the only one drive that makes such sound. I can't explain why it does this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
