Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi folx I have a Compaq Prosignia server, quite and old one, it's a 90MHz pentium machine with a scsi-2 controller on the motherboard and two 1gb scsi-2 disks. Is there any issues with putting a Symbios dual channel ultra-wide scsi controller into this machine? will FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE find the new two controllers OK and leave the onboard scsi as controller 0? Also, does anyone know if I can put ATA disks in this machine? It doesn't have any ide/ata drives in there at the moment, but as it's a PC (that was running NT when I got it) I assume it would have IDE controllers? Could I put a 16Gb ATA drive in it?
