I would guess (no personal experience with these cards), but they are all made for standard PCI, so any of them should work fine. There are several cards out there, some are dual channel, some single. Either way, they all support dual drives per channel, but there is a slight degredation in speed when using dual drives on a dual channel (4 drives total). Check www.xlr8yourmac.com for some speed test results. IDE is always cheaper, but again you get what you pay for. Over the last 20 years, I have had tons more ATA/IDE/ESDI drives fail compared to SCSI.

Are there any currently manufactured PCI cards that will give IDE to the PPC PowerWave? I would like to set up our big box for backing up our whole home network... I don't know if I'm up to SCSI (affording a new 120gig hard drive) Any thoughts? Consensus? Is this even feasible???? -- -Jon Glass Krakow, Poland
