As a matter of good house keeping, uninstall the old drive in the Device Manager before removing it. Jumper the Plextor as Cable Select. Install it and boot-up. Windows will take care of the rest. Congratulations on a fine drive, the Plextor.

That's the jumper setting on the Plextor.
You have 3 choices:
Slave
Cable Select - Cable Select works the best with the newer systems as the drive is auto set depending on what position in is on the cable.
Master
