It's a mystery with BIOS. BIOS is so old that I can set it to hard drive or CD Drive. Hard Drive it acts as a disc drive will cause a boot error unless I have a disc in like Ubuntu in.
My understanding is that Vista and Windows update puts files on the largest drive if it has more free space. My hard drive is 650 but full of everything and passport has tons of free space so Vista commandeered it years ago. I gave up trying to eject it. My other drive is newer and it's a My Book it ejects just fine but it's huge and it's FireWire.
