It is the default boot drive. A secondary IDE drive is the second drive on the IDE cable. It cannot be the boot drive unless the primary drive is not present.<\/p>\n<p>To configure a second IDE hard drive as a secondary drive, you will need to set the drive&#8217;s jumper to the &#8220;secondary&#8221; setting. The jumper is a small plastic or metal switch that is usually located on the back of the hard drive.
