Basically, your drive is setup as Drive 1 vs. Drive 0, and the 174 is saying your do not have a drive in the bay (or it cannot detect one). You will need to do surgery on the cable so that it thinks it is Drive 0. There might be an individual on this list that can tell you how this must be done. -Bob-
