[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 976138, member: 42497"] Put the 160GB drive in position two AFTER setting the jumpers to slave - there is an extra connector on the IDE cable from the existing hard drive. Reboot and go into disk utility. Select the new disk from the left hand column, select erase and then format in Mac OS Extended (Journalled). Then clone the original 10GB drive to the new drive, remove and rest jumpers to master, remove 10GB drive and slip the 160GB into the top position. [/QUOTE]
