Does anyone have an idea on using 2 x hot SCSI drives in a Mac, or I should just lump them in my server and use it as a file server?

I fitted a couple of SCSI Hds intl my rev 1 B&W. One is a 36gb 10000rpm, bought on an OWC special. Bought a SCSI controller card from SWAP listee.

Put them in the 2 front mounts, and my drive coller of course wouldn't fit, so I drilled a couple of holes anf fitted a large fan scavenged from a PC mounted horizontally, blowing directly down onto the fast drive.

You COULD try mounting the cooler vertically, but I don't know how good mounting any disc drive other than horizontally is for the spindle.


Now, I have just picked up an almost-new 120gb Maxtor DaimondMax Plus 9 ATA/133 HD for about $15US.

Can this be used as a direct replacement of the factory 6gb IDE, or will I need an ATA/133 controller card? Or do I run afoul of the supposed the slave-drive size limit?
