I want to go SCSI, but Ultra-DMA would be much cheaper. Can fBSD utilize Ultra-DMA hardware? And if I want to use this machine for CD copying, would I still need SCSI, or would UDMA be sufficient? Also, if anyone has equiment lists and/or shopping lists from reputable vendors they have used to build a fBSD system, could you forward it to me please? Thanks, Chris -- Christopher L.
