ccl0 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 "wide ultra3 " is the key. you'll be able to find a pci adapter card. you'll also need ribbon cables to connect the hard drives to the adapter. these adapter cards can be a little expensive however. in fact it might be cheaper to just get some ide hard drives.

shahed Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 (edited) Hey rick, I must say, it is very fast, my boot time has also increased with all drivers installed. Its way faster than my Raptor x 150gb, and i think its because of the 15k RPM spindle speed. My system is flying with this drive (148gb 15K RPM). Now am just hoping I can get an SCSI RAID adaptor, so i can Set up using the RAID 0 config (SCSI RAID adpator are too expensive, still on ebay hoping to find a decent cheap one ) Edited November 3, 2009 by shahed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
