Promise & On Board IDE Together?
Hi Guys
Haven't tried yet, just thought I'd get some advice first. Is this possible? Basically I want to be able to run my system drive (Onboard 1), 2 audio drives (Promise 1&2) and CD-RW (Onboard 2) all as masters. Can anyone forsee any problems with this? Thanks Mark

Re: Promise & On Board IDE Together?
If what you mean by onboard 1 is primary IDE, then yes you can. I currently have my system drive on the primary IDE and two audio drives on the promise card, while the CDROM and CDR are on the secondary IDE.

Excellent, thanks for that. Any hints on installing the Promise card? Any problems you ran into?

That is the same way I have my system set up and I got 24 + 10 on the DaveC test...Just plug her in and use the disk that came with the card...
Good Luck.

Re: Promise & On Board IDE Together?
If all the drives are masters and they are all on separate cables, then no drive can cause any other drive problems. It all become a PCI issue.
I like this configuration. |
