Thank you for your quick response. What David said about the A7720U was what I expected. I am not sure from the specs on the PCI card whether PCI 2.1 is required or not. The specs do, however, say that the card has 2 independent channels. It seems to me that if one were judicious in the way he configured things the faster drive(s) could be connected to one channel and the slower ones to the other. I have been fairly well pleased with the performance of my IDE zip drive. The only complaint I have is that I have been unable to boot from it. The starmax will simply not find the system file on it at startup. I have found some info on making a startup zip but none of it seems to help. I think the last time I tried I finally just gave up. I will include a link to the PCI adapter I was looking at. http://www.acard.com/eng/product/adapter/mac/ide/aec-6280m.html Thanks again, redsilo
