Man you are right on the bhaal (excuse me this isn't Baldur's Gate), I mean Ball. Thanks for keeping up with my questions, I will be going to school and taking a few classes, I plan on getting my A+ Cert ya know, and a few network classes etc. I already know a pretty good amount of knowledge about pcs. But that knowledge is from personal use, so SCSI hasn't been in my usage of yet, or should I say until soon.
Now, if I upgraded to a motherboard that supports SCSI, that actually has the connected on the MotherBoard, would these be more beneficial?
Would I be able to get the complete you know bandwidth of the drive? As you stated before, I completely understand that your slowest part limits your fastest part if they are used in conjuction, it's a very understandable fact.
Just to let you know, I do not want to replace my Hardware, other then what I have to. I'd prefer not to touch the 64 bit processors for now, until PCI-X becomes a standard with the PCI-E boards (please do not quote me on the PCI-X, for all I know it may be a thing of the past soon or what not, I am just assuming).
I am currently running:
3200 AMD Athlon Barton Core
1024 GIG (dual 512's, which have black heat sinks on them, I have no idea what the brand is, but I got them brand new for like 200 bucks a year ago).
40 gig 7200 rpm probably an 8 meg cache
dvd lite-on 2x or 4x can't remember
Geforce 5200 Aslyum (which will be replaced soon by a BFG 6800 GT OC, I am still waiting for it in the mail)
I mean other then that my hardware is pretty decent, just the motherboard is no longer being made, or should I just upgrade to a motherboard that supports PCI-X, I mean you don't have to do any research or what not, but from, the top of your head would be nice, I don't want to spam you with these long and routed questions. Because I am sorta digging for information without google, because it's become a spammed wannabe msn search engine that is horrible compared to its youthful days. (You use to type in what you was looking for and you would find it, sucks now adays, gotta cycle through pages...)
Also a comparion cost, as stated which would be more expensive, and which would be more profitable... Thanks in advance to anyone who answers, exspecially the Van Dude.
Side note, I purchased this AHA-2940U2W PCI SCSI CARD OEM, and it suppots both 64 bit and 32 bit, I kinda matched up the model numbers you gave me earlier (this card supports 80 meg/s with 32 bit, and the 64 bit works with 160 meg/s). Thanks for reading this stuff.
