Aside from having the usual items to make up a data backup workbench

PSU
Board/CPU/Memory
Keyboard/Mouse
Moniter
IDE1 a)(MSTR) HDD MTR (used to store backup)
IDE1 b)(SLV) Drive being backed up
IDE2 a) DVD/RW,CD/RW

What else would be needed? I tried this same setup before but with the drive being backup as slv and it was showing up as a CD drive and not a HDD?!? What software is recommended, and why was the device coming up as a CD and not a HDD?
