Re: [SLE] ide pci adaptor card

With the two connectors you get four ide devices, two on each controller. If you still however want to go beyond four ide devices, I have used a Promise Ultra ATA-100 card to add an additional two ide connectors to give four extra ide devices. regards, HTH Ahbaid sniptest@cox.net wrote:

I'd like to add another hard-drive to my linux system, currently running Suse 8.1. The motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-7VAX, it only has two ide connectors, one for a hard-drive and the other is used for a cd. Has anyone successfully used any of the ide pci adaptor cards with 8.1?

Thanks.
