I doubt CS works with the newer EIDE drives without a special cable.
anyway, hda should be jumpered as MS and hdb as SL regardless. only
some western digital drives (and possibly some few others) have a
different setting for "only drive" and "master drive".

but if the bios detects the drive, the chances that the jumpers are
right are good...
