Hi,
I want to set up a network storage server using my very first computer, its an Athlon 4200XP with a Asus A7V motherboard.
It doesnt have gigabit ethernet but i found a 30$ pci card that will make it have gigabit.
The problem im facing is how will I stick in lots of HDDs in there. Its an old mobo so it has the plain old ATA connection. How do i make it so that I can connect the new SATA 1TB HDDs, preferable lots of them for the future.
If thats not possible with that kinda mobo then what do you recomend?
Thanks
