I would like to add a 400 gb IDE hard drive to my
Dell Dimension XPS gen 1 (big blue tower type case) or
the gamer PC. I already have 2 HDs attached to the
internal IDE and a 3rd HD attached to a Maxtor ATA 133
PCI IDE controller card. The power supply is 450 watts
so power should not be a problem.
There are only 3 internal enclosures in the hard drive
cage containing my current IDE drives. There is room in
the case for an additional smaller cage.
Is their a spare cage to attach to the current cage
that could handle 1 or 2 3.5 inch IDE HDs? I would also
need spare power connections that could y or branch off
my current power supply cables.
I would appreciate any ideas on how to do this and where
(website, etc..) to purchase any described parts.
