      You will find the jumper located on the rear of the hard drive ......and there should be the option of setting the jumper to :

        Master
        Slave
        Cable Select

      Hmmm, i never thought of that.  The hard drive enclosure lets you connect an IDE HDD via a USB port.  My guess is the jumper setting would not matter, but i may be wrong.

         jjon......With all due respect ....you asked "where do you set the jumper on the pc hd "  and "where on the ext. hd?"   using where suggests a location ......As a result , I responed , telling you where on the Hard drive the jumper is located .
        I trust you can see that by reading your question .
