If I decide to go this route, l will add my current SCSI controller and its peripherals (CD, Tape, disks etc.) to this system when it arrives. I've been running concurrent EIDE and SCSI disks for years, but I've never owned an IDE based CDROM. This new system will come with one. Rather than removing this CD (possibly DVD), will it co-exist with the SCSI CDROM? With 2 (or more) SCSI CDROM's? Is there anything I should worry about? I'll plan to install FreeBSD 3.1 once the new system arrives. Thanks, MikeC Michael C.
