Um, no. 10000 rpm disks will always spin at 10000 rpm. That's a physical characteristic of the drive. If you connect wide devices and narrow devices to the same bus, you will degrade the ability of the wide devices to transfer data at a higher rate. You either have to use a host adaptor with two connectors, or suffer the consequences. -- Nathan Norman "Eschew Obfuscation" Network Engineer GPG Key ID 1024D/51F98BB7 http://home.midco.net/~nnorman/ Key fingerprint = C5F4 A147 416C E0BF AB73 8BEF F0C8 255C 51F9 8BB7
