Right, that is what's I am planning, though.
My motherboard only support UDMA33, but I will wait for a while for
upgrading to UDMA66 due Intel still having problem with his i820
chipset (for AGP VGA), and max. RAM limited to 512 MB only. I heard
that VIA have the solution for AGP, I didn't test it.
The weakness of IDE drive is slow for POP/HTTP/FTP server, but I found
after tweaking UDMA channel the performance increase significant.

Agree.
t> Donot forget you need at least 2 drives anyway....
Yupe, I'll make the second one as swap drive and FTP directory.
Thanks for the advise.
