Drive Configurations

[Clayton]

Can I run a 146GB SCSI drive as a boot drive c:\ and also run a SATA150
500GB drive as a backup drive?

Sure, depends if your mobo or OEM rig supports that config..?

The quoation says Integrated Single Channel U320 SCSI Controller
That means I can only use one SCSI drive in this machine?

Nope, it can address/handle 15 devices. But that would need a bunch of
power and space to use it all.
