phew ...

I decided to use my former backup hdd as a regular hdd from now on, so I installed it as a secondary slave.
(Murphy says that now that I don't do backups anymore I'll have a serious crash within a day).

Anyway, you really really don't want to hear a metallic pling sound and then see this when turning the computer back on:

Primary Master: none
Primary Slave: none
Secondary Master: none
Secondary Slave: none

Must've been just a loose cable though, because after rerouting the cables and switching the hdds' places it now works again. Phew. d:


Off to clean the bathroom and mop the floor at my place.
