How's it going fellow HTF'ers?
I'm in dire need of help and as the title mentions, I'll be trying to add a 250MB IDE Zip drive to my computer's motherboard. Well, this would otherwise be no problem for me but I ran across something that stumped me. I have 2 IDE ports, but they are both occupied by my 2 CD-ROMs (DVD-ROM & CD-RW) and by the Hard Drive. I know that normally I would just link it up to the CD ROM's 40-pin connector, but its taken.
Now my motherboard is equipped with two RAID IDE Interfaces with ATA-100 and RAID 0,1,0+1 support (btw, I have no idea what this means). Will I be able to use one of these ports with the Zip? And if so, what jumper setting will i set my Zip to? If I can't do this, what other options do I have? Here's a link to see all the specs on my motherboard:My Motherboard
I would REALLY appreciate any help! I'm SO DESPERATE! :b
