Chris --- end of quote --- Just out of curiousity, why would you prefer scsi to ide/ata these days? IDE drives are cheap and very fast, huge too. ATA/133 drives are more than adequate for video work and will copy about a gig a minute, necessary to back up a video project, for example. IDE cdrws are also much cheaper than scsi and can be had very fast too. If it would save a slot to avoid buying a fast scsi card, why not? I have a stack of scsi peripherals on my Beige, two scanners (film and flatbed), a drive and burner, that work fine on the native scsi. A scsi card wouldn't help them. But that 4 gig drive is so slow compared to my ATA drives that it is barely useful. Not criticizing, just curious. Rich -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
