According to that document they do indeed Chesters1. Trouble is, both my original and new drives both have only one link fitted, and one of them works just fine. Plus as I said, BIOS recognises the other as a slave. I'm going to 'borrow' a couple of links today here at work and try some more permutations tonight if I get the chance.

In The BIOS under slave drive settings try turning on or off S.M.A.R.T capabilities or LBA on or off, sometimes this may help

It sounds to me as if your drives are connected with a CS (Cable Selct) type IDE cable. Set both drives to CS and they will configure themselves (if I am correct).
