Sweetness...Gracias!

I'm on a SCSI subsystem, but if I can buy some IDE's with good spindle speed, that would suit my needs well from a capacity/storage stand point...

My standards for price would shock Mac users. Right now my motherboard is a hand-me-down 5-year-old dual PIII-500 abandoned by a CAD jockey. Disk is a 40 gig aquired for $10 at a garage sale. Monitor is a 17 inch Dell, $20, garage sale. Counting the DVD player, SCSI CD burner, 512 megs memory (hand-me-down), Windows 2000 (garage sale) I have about $150 invested.

I collect parts at garage sales until I have enough to build or upgrade.
