Hey Kay,
Yes you can. However you are going to need to install an IDE controller
card. In the past I have used one from Maxtor with no problems what so
ever. With the current cost($12 to $30) there seems no reason to buy one
without a built in BIOS(bootable). Promise also makes one that I have
used....the Ultra100TX2.

Subject: [PCBUILD] five IDE drives?
Is there a way to hook up five IDE devices to a PC? The computer already
has two hard drives and two CD drives (one a burner).
Thanks for any help.
