Hi, Reid...

> I need to upgrade to a larger hard drive and to not know if I have EIDE or SCSI.  Is there some code that tells me?  Where do I look?  I have an older system (mid 1990's) 486/50 with a 520 meg hard drive.  I do not need a lot of graphics, but need space for programs.

If this is your configuration and you want to upgrade the computer with more harddisk space... than you will need a IDE drive.. watch out for the compatibility issues on it.. because not all harddisks can be put on a 486 system... check you bios info on how big a HD you
can have...
