I was always told that if you had a CDRW or a DVDRW that you would like to have those on there own buses, for ovious reasons. I dont think it would matter how you connect the harddrives as they are all 8mb cache ones. I would however, do as zone said and disable the extra ide card, because windows XP DOES NOT LIKE 200GB harddrives on install, after you install SP1, it will recognize it, I had the problem once and was like wtf is going on here? but at any rate, zone is on to something, and if you need any other help just ask us
