You may also have to change the jumper on the existing hard drive. Some hard drives have the same jumper setting for MASTER with a SLAVE and ONLY drive in system, while others have 2 different jumper settings for both situations.

Jumper settings for pretty much all hard hard drives can still be found on manufacturer sites.
