Question: How do I access my data on the primary IDE controller slave, 180GB IC35L... Hitachi Deskstar, logical partition 1 while booting Win2k from a SATA drive?
[Note: Everything is NTFS]
Problem(s): I have a couple of Win2k sp4 (slipstreamed) installs on seperate hard disks; the first (80GB WD and old primary) on primary IDE master, the second on a SATA drive using a silicon image Sil3112 SATA controller on a VIA KT880 board. I also have a IDE drive (180GB IC35L Hitachi) with just data (no OS) as a slave to the mentioned primary IDE master. When I install win2k on to the SATA drive and boot off of it (I've tried a couple times now) this slave IDE disk is seen under disk manager but said to be completely empty and shown in 'my computer' but "F:\ is not accessible. The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable."
When I right click F:\ with the explorer GUI and check it's context menu 'properties' there is a long delay and then it reports 0 bytes used space, 0 bytes free, capacity 0 bytes, etc, etc. The device status in both device manager and the aformentioned properties context menu dialog say it is 'working properly'.
When booting from the SATA install of 2k into safe mode I am also unable to access the primary IDE slave HD (but the OS can see the master) exactly like the above.
When I boot into my old Win2k install (on the primary IDE master) I can access the data on this primary IDE channel slave drive (180GB IC35L Hitachi) and the said drive has also been through a comprehensive checkdisk with no issue. I can also read the data from it when I boot off random *nix live CDs with NTFS read support.
Any ideas? The only difference between the primary IDE master and slave that I can see is one is a primary drive and the other logical.
logical disk manager screenshots - IDE Master HD Install - SATA 2k Install - SATA 2k Install Registry Keys of the primary IDE controller which has the problem drive in question.
[PrimaryIDE(HD,HD), SecondaryIDE(CD,DVD). SATA Silicon Image Chip(HD)]
0) Primary IDE Master - 80GB WD, (location 0,0), Slave - 180GB IC35L... Hitachi Deskstar, (location 1,1), 1) Secondary IDE Master and Slave - CD-RW and DVD SATA Silicon Image - 100GB Maxtor (location Bus Number 0, Target ID 0, LUN 0)
____multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)
\boot.ini____ [boot loader] default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)
partition(2)\WINNT [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(2)
\WINNT\"Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional" /sos multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT\"
Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional" /sos
If I boot off the SATA drive, disk(0)rdisk(3)partition(2)\WINNT, my partitions are mapped onto letters like so: C:\ == multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(3)partition(2) == 100GB SATA Maxtor, (first partition is ubuntu) D:\ == multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1) == 80GB Western Digital F:\ == multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1) == 180GB IC35L... Hitachi Deskstar
In my original Win2k primary IDE master install, multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT\, C:\ == multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1) == 80GB Western Digital D:\ == multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1) == 180GB IC35L... Hitachi Deskstar G:\ == multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(3)partition(2) == 100GB SATA Maxtor, (first partition is ubuntu)

Sounds like a motherboard or BIOS thing. Maybe your mobo has some limitation, like the IDE slave channel is shared with the SATA so they can't be used at the same time. Or maybe there's a resource conflict between the IDE and SATA controllers that's messing it up.
