Can I have 3 HD controllers ?
On my XPS T500 I have 2 HD drive controllers right now, a Promise Ultra 100 IDE controller hooked to two hard drives, and an Adaptec 29160 SCSI controller hooked to a SCSI drive.
My question is: Can I hook a fourth hard drive to the IDE motherboard controller (which is currently unused).

rlightbourne, what wattage power supply does it take to use all these HDDs. I have a Dell 8250 with a 250 watt power supply, and wondering if that is large enough to run 3 HDDs? Doogie
