Hi,
Well, I have 2 questions:
My first question, i'm building a computer. So I bought a Anti Static band, well where do I put the alligator clip? I've heard putting it on the chassis or on the carpet? Which is best?
My second question, when I was buying my hard drive. I bought a refurbished one, and I accidentally bought a ATA hard drive. My motherboard only supports SATA, so I went to Fry's and asked if they had a ATA (or IDE?) to SATA converter they said "Oh we usually do, but we are currently out of stock." and online all I could was find was a ATA to USB converter. Anyone know if their is actually a ATA to SATA converter?
Thanks!
