I have a question regarding my G3/300 Mini-tower. I have upgraded this to G4 500 with 768 meg ram and am looking to upgrade my hard-drive status. I currently am running the stock 4 gig scsi HD that shipped with this unit. I believe that I have a Rev A version of ROM which, apparently, will not allow a slave drive HD (apparently even on the IDE CD-ROM bus). My first question is regarding the use of a PCI ATA card in this system. Does the "no slave drive" rule apply to the PCI cards, as well? My second question is concerning the ROM. Will replacing my Rev A with a Rev B or C allow me to use a slave drive or will the motherboard prohibit this, as well? Thanking the Collective Consciousness in Advance. . .
