It's > is going to have to look ugly. Not necessarily. There are other places to run cables besides through a fan grate. For instance, I have seen ribbon cable running through the cracks in the back. I vote for a good DB-3x connector. We have some old Convergent disk servers at work that have an old full height St-506 and 8" floppy backup with a DB-3x(something) connector between the workstation and the disk server. I would like to see something like this. The connector could be installed between the fans. I would like to put the daughter board where the internal drive is, and put both hard drives in there own cabinet with there own power supply. -- Dave Arnold dave@arnold.UUCP Volt Delta Resources Phone: (714) 921-7635
