Hi, Where should an internal zip drive sit in the IDE interface? I have a 70gb hard drive on the primary IDE channel and a DVD drive and a CD re-writer on the secondary. I am worried that by connecting the zip drive on the primary channel , it will slow down the hard drive? Thanks in advance

I have an old ZE5170 that runs great. I bumped up the RAM from 512kb to 1MB - the max it can handle - and it's now fast enough to work well with the latest FF and Chrome browsers. I don't need a lot of power, it's used for email, web browsing, writing PHP and Visual Basic, so it's fast enough...

I have this resistor controller for my cpu fan and it works great. However, it is INSIDE the computer case so I can't easily change the speed if things start cooking inside.

Dear Andy: I have had a few of the kt7s5a motherboards by ECS. I think they have had some bad batches. I ended up returning mine for replacements. Currently have the pro version, but only as a backup. I ended up putting some more money down and got the Lanparty motherboard and am using it with...
