If you have several of these internal hard disks available, there is another option - you get external adapters that connect to these bare hard disks. For 3.5" ones, they come with their own power supply. They interface via USB. Makes it easy for you to swap between several of these. I got one of these: http://www.amazon.com/Coolmax-15438-CD-350-COMBO-Multifunctional-Converter/dp/B000HZEX1K With IDE going out of fashion, I have several years worth of accumulated old 3.5" hard disks. Instead of buying a casing for each of these, this converter was more cost effective. - Sandip _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
