    Look in the manual, or find teh driver cd and put it in, or go to manufacturers website and download drivers and manual...

    by hot swap, what do u mean? im not good with HDDs but if u mean hot-pluggable (USB or Firewire) then itll install itself on XP, 2k, and ME just by plugging it in.

    it didnt come with a manule
    or website

    what it is,
    its in one of my cdrom bays
    and what you do is you put a hard drive
    in a little box and you put that box into
    the box in you cdrom bay
    so that way you can swap large files with others

    it runs on IDE

    in know there is a way in win. 2k
    to just enable it but i cant remember
    i know its in admin tools/computer management
    but from there im lost

    did that help

    It should automatically install with XP.
