Well I don't think you'd be posting without a hard drive. unless you're using a live CD OS or something. Or do you mean a second HDD? It goes in the same as the other, just set it to slave.

Oh ok, yeah just pop the drive in and hook up the IDE cable and you're set. Through the windows 2000 installer you can then partition and format it.

Now if it's a sata drive, it's a PIA since you need to load the drivers during the windows install, and finding the drivers can be tough.

LOL yeah that's a crazy fine. Its completely randomized, but if I remember well it's also based on the bank security and that bank has high security.
