I have a better option. Just mod the hard drive adapter, and move the IDE port over. Thats what I do. tools needed Dremel tin snips screw driver set zip ties hot glue |

Or just get a hard drive that fits directly onto the network adapter without modifications. Pretty much anything OTHER THAN Western Digital seems to work. Seagate/Maxtor (now the same company, but they are keeping the brands separate) are pretty much guaranteed to fit. |
