cool! that is also what i have in mind.  but what processor will you test your board?  I believe that Abit-BE6 can support upto 8 IDE drives.  Are the necessary cables provided already with the board?   Raymond ----- Original Message ----- From: Andrew Cook To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, September 25, 1999 6:42 AM Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] off topic: IDE Harddisk limitation Or, if you prefer Slot 1 or fear overclocking, I just got an Abit-BE6.  Single processor but otherwise similar to the BP-6.  I am building a home machine on it this weekend with a Quantum 13GB 7200 RPM/ATA66 drive.  I'll let you know how it goes.   Andrew Cook [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Chris Hunt Sent: Friday, September 24, 1999 4:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] off topic: IDE Harddisk limitation Yes, get the new ABit  BP6    it is a dual CPU MB ( socket 370, not slot 1)  Two things that make this board the "HOT" item right now SMP support with celerons.  People are taking cheap 366Mhz Celerons and running them at 550Mhz Regular 33Mhz IDE and the new 66Mhz IDE ports. Now you can have up to 8 IDE devices.
