I have 2 SATA drives on my computer. One drive holds part. C & E. The other, D & F. One of the drives SEEMS to be going bad and I believe it's the drive with D & F. How can I tell for sure, without disconnecting one drive and just using one for a while, which drive holds which partitions since there's no master/slave switch? THANKS!!

try going to
control panel-->administriative tools-->computer management and then clicking on disk management and see if windows detects the disk as being faulty or unhealthy

that might start you in the right direction for now,

you can always see if you can download a program from the internet they can be helpfull sometimes

hope that helps a little,
