SCSI C drive?

[thralldad]

Just installled a SCSI adapter (Adaptec AVA-1502 ISA) and hard drive on my old comp. Fresh FAT32 and format. I'd like to copy my 98se OS onto the new drive and remove the old one. When I reboot it doesn't "see " the SCSI HD but windows sees it just fine. Will this work??

I THINK the SCSI will run faster than the IDE drive.

Any thoughts? Paul

SCSI drives are faster than IDE. Try removing the ide drive and see if the pc boots from the scsi drive. Check out all the bios options such as boot sequnce, 'boot off board adapters first' etc

One cannot make a blanket statement that SCSI is faster than IDE. Only SCSI drives are slower than modern IDE drives. A more appropriate statement would be: If from the same generation, SCSI drives are faster than IDE drives.
