Hi there
first question , are your IDE cables able to be plugged into your drives regardless of direction?
Normally the iDE connectors are "keyed" so that they can only be plugged in with the coloured wire, on one side, toward the power connector. Is this how your cable is connected? or can it be connected with the cable mounted upside down?
Did you change any settings to the jumper configuration when you removed it?
Is it the being put back in the PC that you borrowed it from or the one you want to lend it to?
