It shouldn't, it'll just make the second drive hdd. I normally swap the
cables round. (quite why manufacturers have the cables like this I don't

Did you make sure your new drive is set as slave, it's normally a link
between the power connector and the ribbon cable connector. There is
usually a picture on the drive label showing where it goes.
