    Serious hard disk problem
    I have a 20Gb Seagate, I set it as a slave (40Gb Maxtor being master). When I open "My Computer" it tells me that my seagate still have 5.75Gb of free space but when I browse it I only shows "My Documents" folder and "mydocuments.000" file (I moved My Documents' path to the Seagate drive).what happened?. and what should I do?:(

    Did you format the Seagate drive before using ? I ran into this problem when I installed a 160 Gig Seagate but after formatting the drive all went well.
    I hope you backed up all your documents to CD from My Documents before moving to the Seagate HD.
