Sure... but! I had two small SCSI drives and the same CD-Burner in there before, and everything was working fine. Now I remove the two SCSI drives and SCSI Controller, put the new Maxtor Drive as master on IDE Channel 1 slaved with a plain CD player. The Burner has always been Master by itself on IDE Channel 2. Now after this change, I can no longer write a directory of wav files to the cd-rom without the machine spitting out errors about the hard drive. The motherboard is old and only supports ATA33. SO I'm getting me a PCI IDE ATA100 Controller and cable, and will connect the Maxtor drive up to channel 1 by itself, drop the other CD player, and keep the CD-Burner as master on its own channel and see what happens. -ger To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
