Title: King Maxtor 16
Post by: zevele1 on April 14, 2002, 10:47:43 am

The only way to get the external one you have is on order.Means that,unlike "regular products"i will pay much more than the US price
I will buy it in Europe
I can get the Maxtor internal 160gb for $286.But i have another problem:no more  plug  in for it.USB 2 is still to come here
I have the solution to put a plug[?],an extension[?] inside the computer because i have physical  room inside.You can plug 4 more devices on it
Is this a good solution?If not a external Usb 1 can do?I will put only mp3 on the 160gb

And how do you defragment drives as big?

Then You Will Need To Buy A PCI EIDE Card, Maxtor Sells One, You Can Add This ATA133 Card And Have 4 More EIDE Drives You Can Add To Your System. The ATA100 Cards Will Not Support The 160Gig Internal So Make Sure It Is A ATA133 Card.

I have the Orginal ATA66 On the Mother Board (Suports Upto 32 Gig Drive), And A ATA100 PCI Controler (Supports UpTo 137Gigs), And A FireWire Controler For The External Drives.

I Am Currently At 717 Or So Gigs 320 Of It Is FireWire Drives

THANK YOU!!!!
In fact,i see now that i do not need the external you have.Can put 4 160gb inside before.........
It is good news.I have only 4 USB plugs.One is for my ethernet adapter card,i will need another one for Stereolink,so only 2 left

not listening now.My father is still here.I killed everyone with loud music as a tennager.
To the point they built me a room in the atic.......With age i have more respect...
Will have 230gb with the new Maxtor
