Thanks for everyones’ help. Won’t recognize the second drive. Don’t know why. It appears to be working, green light on, slave setting. It just can’t see the DVD in there. May be defective.

It is possible that you have a bad cable, bad drive, bios problem or combination. If you install only the drive that you are having a problem with, does it work?

I once had a problem like this, and the only work around I could find, was to put each DVD drive on a seperate ribbon cable. 1 HDD and 1 1 DVD one a ribbon cable, and the same with the other HDD & DVD. The two differenbt DVD drives just would not cooperate on the same ribbon cable.
