Clone Slave Drive

Thread needs solution

I just cloned my Master HDD. I also want to clone my Slave HDD. It seems I have done this sometime in the past, but I cannot remember how I did it. I only have 2 bays for HDDs on my Dell 960. SHould I try to stick the new HDD in the DVD bay?

Thanks

Best advice, put a backup file somewhere and restore the backup onto the new drive, in place. Pick up a usb drive on sale would be handy.
The DVD bay might not have the right connector. If you still have Master/Slave drives, then you have old IDE ports for your harddisks. You might have the same for your DVD drive; bit of a trick reaching the connector though.
