Here locally they're selling for around $60 to 70, so $10 shipped is pretty good. _________________________ AppleCentral Trivia MM-MCF Trivia Call the Doctor

Jim_ aka Reboot Registered: 04/21/02 Posts: 11329 Loc: Columbus OH	Well first off since we're poor cheap bastards I was running with that. That card only has 2 ports, and do you have the need for the extra speed. Here's a linky I found that explains the current situation pretty well. It seems that currently the bottleneck in the real world may be the SATA to USB controller. Soon 3.0 will be up to par price-wise. Unless you have the drives and the need for the speed it's a pissing match, which is always important to win.

NucleusG4 MasterBlaster Registered: 04/19/02 Posts: 8321 Loc: Miami, Fl.	Thanks.. I'll be going with USB 2.0... Do you think the one you linked to will do the job? Basically a USB card is a USB card.. right? _________________________ http://davidbearphotography.com/ ==== It appears that autocorrect has become my worst enema. ---
