Tom Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 I currently have 4 hard drives, although only know how to have 2 of them actually connected up. I have a caddy for the third, but don't really like it. Is there soem way i could have all 4 going at once? I could put both of the extra ones in a caddy and have it through USB, but since I only have 2 USB 2.0 ports I would rather there was another way.
Djstawberryjam Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 Only way you could do this would be to get a PCI IDE card (im guessing here that the harddrives are IDE) i've seen these on ebay and i think some are on ebuyer, but they will basicly allow you to plug extra harddrives into your computer
Charlie Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 Open up your computer to see what it's like inside, you might have space for extra hard drives...

Marshmellow Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 no or at least the ones i have seen and the one i have does not
