i am building a file server system, based on a P2 350, and want to put some big hard drives in it. the cheapest ATA card out there is a RAID, EIO AP-1680, and i was wondering, can it be used in just normal ATA 133 mode?
 
I don't know too much about RAID, but one of the things I remember reading is that CD-ROM's usually don't work with RAID cards. But I only have experience with my on-board RAID so don't take my word for it.
