I replaced my dvd-rom with a second hard drive and it seems that the Windows driver for the motherboard simply doesn't work with this.
The drive is well recognized in the BIOS Setup, however after Windows boots. the *** starts.
Lots of errors in Windows Event Viewer: Disk 1 has been surprised removed:

Well, unless DELL says that they designed it to do not work with a second hard drive replacing their DVD-ROM, it seems to me that either the driver has poor support for Windows (it works fine with Linux). Even in Windows 8.1, the error is the same.
I've tested the second HD even with DELL tests, with 2 HDs installed, the test goes fine.
It is, definitely, the driver support.
Anyone else ran int this?
