I read your earlier post about using an IDE controller in the PCI slot.
I could be wrong, but I believe all RaQ3/4 have two IDE channels on the MB,
even though there is only one IDE connector on some RaQs.
With IDE0 drives A/B, IDE1 drives C/D so if you put a third ide channel in the
PCI slot might they not be E/F?????
Would the RAID software mirror A to E????
