Are you saying that all you need to hot-swap IDE are the special hot-swap caddies, without a fancy pantsy IDE controller? i.e. don't need to buy the FastTrak Pro if you want hot-swap. If that's the case, that makes hot-swap hard disks disgustingly cheap. -- #ozone/algorithm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - trust.in.love.to.save -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
