Re: Resetting System to Default - Slave Drive Actions?

You won't lose the data. You may, however, have different drive letters allocated to the HDDs and optical drives from what they are now, depending upon your set-up.

Whether you have the slave attached or not doesn't matter. What you mustn't do after installing, is to change the drive letter of the optical drive from where you installed the operating system. This can give you problems when running programs like sfc which looks at the registry for its pointers.
