I use SCSI and have a CD-ROM and one harddisk and usually ] floppies. Software setup takes me a couple more minutes since I use SCSI. It took me about an hour to add a fourth drive to my IDE array, a month or so back. However, part of this was because I had to do interesting tricks with mounting rails, and some minor modification of the case (a bit of filing for screw clearance), in order to fit 4 1" drives into a module designed for 3 half-height devices. -- "I am the NRA." \ "Life does not cease to be funny when people die, Alaric Tekiahyn \ any more than it ceases to be serious when people alaric@netcom.com \ laugh."
