Usually you will have to set the Jumper to Master, but depending on the drive you may have to set it to Slave or
Cable Select. Check to see if the drive shows up under My Computer after changing the Jumper to each possible
setting. If these settings do not work, then simply place the jumper back to the original setting and try once
again.

If the drive has a Master Boot Record partition, then it will only allow a maximum usable amount of 2TB. This
limitation exists in all Windows operating systems, up to Windows XP 64 Bit. For Windows Vista and Windows 7
you can get past this limitation, and utilize the full capacity of the drive by converting it to a GPT partition drive.

To convert the disk to a GPT partition disk in Windows Vista and Windows 7:
O D M, locate the disk in the list, right click the disk and click on C  GPT D
You will now have access to the full capacity of your 2+ TB disk.
