Kindly, identify the hard disk section  on the rear side of the drive. The leftmost section of the hard drivers is were the IDE/SATA connector located. There are many pins attached to the socket. In between of the power connector socket and IDE/SATA connector SATA, located the jumper pins. By default , new hard disk is setting as master position. The setting can be change by using the jumper and follow the at hard disk labelling that have been stick to it.

                The changes of the setting are depends on what is the computer configuration setting whether it will be salve or other purposes by using the same IDE cable.
