I'm trying to install to this Sata drive but it says "Windows may not be able to install to this SATA drive. Check to make sure it's enabled in the BIOS."

or something to that affect. It's recognized in the BIOS (one is Channel 1 master, the other is Channel 2 slave...I thought that was weird....maybe fixing that will solve my problem?)

Any suggestions?
 
Thanks. That allowed me to install Vista.

My next question is...should my HDDs be IDing as SATA 1 - Master and then SATA 2 - Slave. If anything, shouldn't it be SATA 1 - Master and Slave or SATA 1 - Master/SATA 2- Master?

EDIT: Something must be wrong. In My Computer, only 1 HD shows, where as when I went to install Vista, both showed.

Any ideas?
