[Havok]

Clearing out some newer stuff:

Two 3.5" 80GB SATA Drives, $40 shipped for each one.

One 3.5" 160GB IDE Drive, $60 shipped.

All drives are verified good with Chkdsk, wiped, and then freshly formatted NTFS.

(Shipping included for US only)

Looks like I'm asking too much!

How about $35 each for the 80GB drives, and $50 for the 160GB?

[Havok]

160GB drive is sold!

Make me an offer on the 80GB drives!!!

[Havok]

Time for Crazy Eddie pricing!

$25 shipped for one, $45 shipped for both drives!!!

can SATA and IDE be used in the same PC?
I have never used SATA
I hear SATA is MUCH faster. can you confirm this?
I might just but these off you.

I need to check my MOBO's and make sure I have a SAST port.

[Havok]

Sure - depending on the age of the mobo, it might have both interfaces. If it's only IDE, then just install a card. You'd need something like this:

I think I have one lying around. If you need one I will throw it in for $10 extra - however, let me know if you want to pull the trigger and I'll locate and test it first...

A bit off topic, but is there such a thing as a generic PCI riser card? I'm using a mobo with only 1 PCI slot, and would like to expand to maybe 3.

[Havok]

I've seen them, but usually they are for servers, and go for crazy money; I had to use a 7 slot one once, I believe it cost around $1,000!!!

There must be a home version out there that is more affordable, but I've never seen one.

*Maybe* this would work?
