I currently run a Western Digital IDE hard drive, and I was considering getting an IDE CD-R to run on the second controller. Is this preferable/advisable, or should I spend the extra on a SCSI card and CD-R drive? Any brands that are more compatible/better than others? Any information you could give would be greatly appreciated. ----------- Robert Wall sales@web-walrus.com Web Walrus Media 405 S Farwell St #23C Eau Claire, WI 54701 (715) 855-0189 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
