I even removed my old SCSI drive. I've partitioned my Maxtor 15 G drive for OS X, Classic (9.2), and 9.1. Given the limitations of our older machines I think the VST card is the best buy. It does conflict with some PCI configurations, but it has very good ATAPI support so you can run a cheap cd-rw as well as cheap IDE drives. -Ford -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
