Hi
I was wondering if this is a possible setup:

WD Raptor 36 Gb SATA harddisk w/ OS
Primary Master WD Caviar 160 Gb w/ data
Primary Slave DVD-writer
Secondary Master DVD-rom
Secondary Slave Zip drive

Thanks in advanced

Sure and you need to tell the bios to boot from the Raptor then.

Goodluck

I would swap the DVD writer and the DVD Rom. You will get faster writing to the DVD writer from the Caviar drive if it's on a separate channel.
