This web page shows the jumper settings you require. http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.seagate.com/staticfiles/images/support/en/us/mxo_ata_jumpers_rev.jpg&imgrefurl=http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php%3Ft%3D387061&usg=__oBf6Czrk9E5_4ovUuuyxJCl68fY=&h=411&w=850&sz=83&hl=en&start=3&itbs=1&tbnid=J_I6lp0cCbuIwM:&tbnh=70&tbnw=145&prev=/images%3Fq%3DJumper%2Bsettings%2Bold%2BMaxtor%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG
Select the maxtor HDD as master by setting the Jumper to the extreme left of the hdd; i.e. next to the data cable. Remove all jumpers from the other HDD which you want to put as slave.
On the back of the hdd you will see a row of little pins in groups of 2 vertically. It will be marked either right above the pins or on the top of the hdd above the pins, ma, sl, cs. The setting for slave is sl. Put the plastic jumper cap on those 2 pins & it is set for slave. Hope this helps & please remember to rate my answer. Thanks.
