    switch disk numbers: I want Disk 0 to be Disk 1 and Disk 1 to be Disk 0

    Hi, My computer contained a normal HDD hard drive. I recently upgraded to a SSD. The original HDD is Disk 0 and the new SSD is Disk 1. The windows OS is on Disk 1. I want to dual boot my system with Windows and Ubuntu with both OS being on the SSD. Since
    the SSD is Disk 1 the Ubuntu install goes directly to Disk 0 because Disk 0 is first on the list. How can I switch the two Disks so my SSD drive is Disk 0? Thanks.

    EXTERNAL HARD DISK WD HAVE TO UNPLUG FROM WD HARD DISK TO START COMPUTER

    Hi

    Have a problem with a WD hard disk - I have to uplug the hard disk plug from the electric sockets to start up the computer

    Have tried Data Life WD Diagnostic and all would appear to be in order the pc shows the disk and it works - WD have sent me a new set of plugs - same problem - they are now willing to change the disk - OK - but how can I be sure its their disk that is a
    failure or somethng going wrong on my PC. I have already 3 other WD disks and they all work OK - one of the them is in the same set of sockets as the one seemingly faulty

    Any ideas about ths would be greatly appreciated

    Thanks for any assistance anyone can provide
