The 30 gig should be your Master and the 2 gig should be your Slave drive, the new should have been jumpered from the factory th old one should have a diagram on the drive, usually the New harddrives come with a Floppy Disk that will Copy your old drive to the new drive and if it is an if it is an old Computer, have software to trick the Bios into seeing the new drive, some will only recoginize 2gig or 8gigs, read the Faqs at the Hardware Manufactures Web Site for Help to, if have trouble using it, there is a Dos Command that will Copy the Drive, I just used it to copy to a new drive, once that is done Format the old drive, I use mine for storage, like downloaded files, pictures, etc. I have to go to work I'll check back when I get home, send me an email
