Ford, Our Umax is a c600. It does have an IDE hard drive. But, it can only handle one IDE drive. Any additional hard drives are actually connected to the external SCSI bus. Right now it has the original 4GB IDE drive and the 9600's original 4 GB SCSI installed. The 9600 has both an internal and an external SCSI bus. The IDE controller (Tempo ATA/100) card will go in the 9600 to operate the 60 GB IDE drive.
I know it would be easier to put the 60 GB IDE in the UMAX and leave the 18 GB SCSI in the 9600. But, I use the 9600 a lot more than Ron uses the c600. And, I am the one who needs more storage space. I keep back up copies of all of my business accounting on the 9600. Besides, since we got the iMac flat panel for the business, Ron will end up with the 3400 as a toy. He is turning the retired powerbook into a digital cookbook.
