No apologies needed. You are absolutely correct. I wrote it much to quickly and I did mix up my acronyms a few times. Thanks for the help. I didn't remember typing USB but it was on my mind from the external cable recover device I mentioned earlier. I knew they were different which is why I mentioned tracing them down to find them. Oh well.
I'll admit that the slave master thing was a surprise though. The one I opened up was a Maxtor set to slave so I assumed they all would be similar as it made sense being a secondary drive. However, I suppose that would be dependent on the circuitry.
If that's the case, you will indeed need to double check the jumpers/switches. If it's set to master, you will need to set to slave. Most are labeled right on the drive but you might have to find some online documentation on the Master vs. different slave settings.
Good catch!
Glad you caught my errors before he got confused.
