4000T and bootable IDE...
« on: March 30, 2009, 01:15:14 PM »
My 4000T's boot SCSI drive appears to be giving up the ghost finally (unsurprising, it's a 1GB drive that's at least 13 years old) and instead of going the SCSI route, I was going to slap in an IDE drive instead.   The last time I tried this, for the life of me, I couldn't get it to boot off of IDE - is there something special with the way the 4000T works with the IDE controller?

I might look into the SCSI->SATA adapater since I have so many extra SATA drives lying around.

I'm sure SCSI is faster normally, but I have a stack of IDE drives which I'd rather use if possible.
