Dynamically disabled means your drive(s) at some level are recognized, but are not functional. This may be caused by...
- the wrong, bad or misconfigured cables - UDMA33 vs UDMA66 vs UDMA100 cable mismatches, etc.
- incompatibilities between the drives
- misconfigured drive or IDE settings
- inadequate or problem power supply - with auto-insert turned on, windows will poll your drive every 4 seconds and it's usually the last polled device. If power is inadequate or not available, you will get a message.
