Yeah, I'm sure they do. You could also buy a controller for $20 - i am happy with my Silicon Image SATA controller, and I have another SI ide controller that has been working well for years. for example, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816132007 has 1 internal, 1 external sata port; they also come with 2 internals, or more, of course. > Thanks. > > Dale > > :-) :-) :-) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
