Hey there all,

I have a SCSI HDD lying around at home and have not used it (it's about 2 years old, 80gig).
I was wondering if it is possible to run either dual scsi/sata, or scsi/ide hdd at the one time ?
The way I was going to work it was have the Scsi HDD as my OS hard drive and set that up in Bios with the correct software to be read first then the IDE HDD's second (use the IDE's for storage of mp3's etc, etc...)
So if anyone can help me out on this matter it would be great.

would it also be able to be set up to have a dual os on the scsi hdd (i.e. red hat 9 and that evil word "windows").
thanks,

Jada

er, i'm pretty sure scsi drives don't come in the 80 gig variety. that said, if its a 76gig drive which i think is the nearest, sell it :)
