I need help with a Hitachi Deskstar® 7K80 80 GB ATA-100 Hard Drive please. The problem: I had an old computer and it crashed, a severe motheboard issue, it started sparking, etc. So I've gotten another computer it is a Emachines W3644 the hard drive in it is a Hitachi Desktar HDS721616PLA380 and the capacity is 160 GB. I want the data off the old 7K80 hard drive onto the new one, and I want them hooked up into the same tower, at the same time. So what would I need to set the jumpers to? Thanks for all your help

Here's a picture of the first mentioned hard drive
