Actually  I do have another curiosity...

Not having the machine in front of me yet  I can only go from the research
Ive done.

I think I was told that it has internal scsi  so Im assuming it is an
internal pci card...maybe its part of the motherboard..I dont know...
question is     I have a 9gb 7200rpm SCSI HD  and an 8gb 5400 IDE HD that I
plan on installing for the time being.   I would prefer the 7200/scsi as my
main drive   and I think the b/w is built as an EIDE for its master drive.
will I loose anything speed wise  if I designate the otherwise slave
position<scsi> as my master drive in the  start-up disk control panel ?

basically  is a 7200rpm drive through the scsi port going to be faster
than a 5400rpm drive going through the IDE  < assuming the IDE is for the
master drive > ?

also  Ive only recently gotten usb  < PPC 9600 - PCI card > and have never
used firewire     is there an internal outlet for  either the  usb or the
firewire on the B/W  or are they all external ports?

thanks again for the feedback
Ralph
