Hi all, i need to use my toshiba sd-r2512 in primary slave configuration. Actually it’s primary master with firm 1720, it’s possible?
Or my notebook can’t see it 
thx in advance
Hi and Welcome,
at first you’ll need an adapter to connect the drive to a standard IDE port on a desktop computer.
Secondly, you need a firmware for your drive that is configured for slave setting.
Firmware can be found here: http://hijacker.rpc1.org/toshiba/index.php?path=SD-R2512/ and here: http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?category=15&manufactor=31 but I don’t know, which is the correct one for your drive and the intended settings. Maybe there is some readme in the packages, I haven’t had a look at them.

Check the notebook bios settings.
I suggest to buiy a slimtype IDE adaptor and then try flashing eg. 102x.
thx both for reply!
For the adapter: i have it, so no problem.
For the firm… i have tried 1n22 and 1f20 at this page http://hijacker.rpc1.org/toshiba/index.php?path=SD-R2512/ but without results…
Today i will try the 1020 but i lost my hope…
On pc’s bios, unfortunately, there’s not any option to change primary/secondary setting (shitti model -_- )
Without results??
simply shorp 47&48 pin of data port connector of drive…
and you get opposition setting of drive default mode
