Wow, 15-year-old technology dusted off and sold as new! 8-) Do a web search for "Hardcard" : http://www.maxtor.com/Quantum/support/archive/hcii_support.htm http://store.traders.com/traderscom/-v05-c04-hardcrd-pdf.html BTW, just because they're mounted on a PCI card doesent mean that they're faster than existing drives; they still wont be able to transfer data faster than the PCI bus can move it back and forth.
