I like the rsync method because it is really fast! I had an oops with the new hard drive. I learned what sata is and my motherboard is too old. But I bought a pci card that should solve that problem at the expense of $25.00 and be slow compared to real sata :-(



Did you order power and data cables too? They will be different and last time I had to order them separately even with this newer computer.

This whole thing is getting out of hand! I spent $110 for a hard drive and then $24 for a controller card and now you verify my fear that I need some cables not part of the controller card. But I can turn this whole thing off yet with a phone call :-)

I'd probably have gone for a cheap identical IDE replacement, but you may or may not get a cable. Sometimes retail boxed drives include them but OEM packaged versions don't.
